I don't neglect but I believe unrestrained the insurance agency will have at a minimum the same problems as we do with our government. An insurance agency needs to set rates, it needs to specify what is covered and what is not, it needs to spread the risk, it needs to be governed by some mechanism. All of these issues will be faced by whatever entity one wants to name it.

Its juvenile thinking that just because an entity has been renamed we remove all of the problems. The aspect that such an entity would grow into a huge repressive government is so basic to me I am overwhelmed that such otherwise intelligent people cannot project what would happen.

This whole anarchy idea is so off the mark from any sense of reality it is breathtaking. My only way to explain it is those who wish to use drugs without fear of arrest are willing to believe anything just to continue.

If you mean, the idea that there is the possibilty of a society without a government, I agree. If you mean, the idea that moral intelligent men can live in a society without a government, I dissagree. This difference in principle is important. The only reason there is government is because societies are comprised primarily of immoral individauls. In a hypothetical moral society, government would serve no purpose whatsoever. The problem is ultimately the stuff society is made of, and until that problem can be solved, there is no political solution.
