There is a good argument by The Bad Quaker that anarchists should take advantage of every opportunity to take from "government." If someone finds a way to sell a hammer to the "government" for $1000, they should not hesitate to act. The logic is to bleed "government" and expose it for the immoral, inefficient "thing" it is. He argues that it is not a violation of NAP, since "government" does not legitimately own anything.

Yeah, it's impossible to "steal from the government," since (like you said) it doesn't rightfully own anything. However, it still could be viewed as accepting property that was stolen from others. Then again, letting the parasites keep it is even worse.

I like Ben Stone but the idea of bleeding government doesn't work out. More expenses only gives rise to more justification for more taxation and more government etc. It's a vicious cycle.
