The fact that we have all sorts of taxes and regulation isn't much of an argument for more of the same.

And it certainly isn't a relevant response to any of my statement that you quoted.

It doesn't answer the following at all

"Tax money for many social programs is only questionably related to stability. The phone system, much of medical care spending, a good part of the legal system, some roads, and most energy costs are in the private sector, and the extent that some of these things are handled by the private sector could easily be increased. (For example the annual energy bills tend to be a bunch of subsidies and pork, and should be slashed, perhaps mostly or even completely eliminated)."
