Response: Sorry Libertarian Anarchists, Capitalism Requires Government

in anarchy •  8 years ago 

I don't see any attempt to deal with market failures such as public goods or negative externalities.... That is where the need for govt. has historically been grounded. You can argue that many of the services performed by a specific govt. do not fall under market failures (e.g. education, healthcare etc.) but I don't see how in your security example you deal with free riders without coercion.
