But who would build the roads if there were no government? You mean to tell me that 300 million people in this country and 7 billion people on the planet would just sit around in their houses and think Gee, Id like to go visit Fred, but I can't because there isnt a flat thing outside for me to drive on, and I dont know how to build it and the other 300 million or 7 billion people cant possibly do it because there arent any politicians and tax collectors. If they were here then we could do it. If they were here to boss us around and steal our money and really inefficiently build the flat places, then we would be set. Then I would be comfortable and confident that I could get places. But I cant go to Freds house or the market because we cant possibly build a flat space from A to B. We can make these really small devices that enable us to contact people from all over the word that fits in our pockets; we can make machines that we drive around in, but no, we cant possibly build a flat space.
