The problem with Silicon Valley’s libertarians

--- If Mark Zukerberg decides that he wants me dead with no retaliation on himself, there has to be someone with even more teeth than he can hire. And that is the point of a government: we give it a monopoly on legitimate force in our society. ---

I believe you're excluding the middle here. Why are the only options "we either give one party a monopoly on violence", or "no such monopoly exists, therefore the rich and powerful can kill whomever they want". Why can't, say, the monopoly on violence be abolished, but have that policing and judicial role be performed by private law?

What you've just written is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever read. At no point in your rambling, incoherent article were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this thread is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

This author seems to confuse libertarians with anarchist.

Most libertarians are not anarchist, they allow for a limited form of government that is there to ensure that people's individual liberties are not violated. That includes enforcing contracts and makings sure people don't murder each other.

What nonsense.
