Because they do seem to stem from ignorance with regards to the purpose of a society. Why should I refrain from robbing you if I am sick and hungry whilst you seem to have more than you need? We have entered into a society in order to protect ourselves, which means that even the poorest in our society must have healthcare and food on the table, which again requires all of us to pay a certain amount of our money for things we might not directly need. You might not need healthcare, roads, public transportation etc. but you do need to not be killed and robbed by people who have nothing.

That's not really an alternative..

Holy crap. Renaissance Technologies gives an annual return of 35% on average. That is quite amazing.

Nope. If you want to know how to make a small OS that can run on a PC, take a look at xv6 which is a modern re-implementation of the sixth edition of Unix and is on Github. You can compile it and then run it in qemu. Fork it, read and understand the source and then expand upon it to your hearts content. That would at least give a very good starting point.

This sort of thing is what keeps the myth of antivirus companies being the ones creating all the damn viruses going.
