No Libertarian governments anywhere on earth. They won't work.That is a great point I have seen a few others make and then I forget it.

You do a nice job of explaining how we always organize ourselves with layers of governments; since becoming civilized. School boards, planning commissions, cities, counties, states, federal government and United Nations.

Taxes are the price for civilization.

As governments or social organization are a given, the huge dividing line in history, many seem to not understand, is when we moved from social organization by dictators or tribal chiefs, to republics, rule by the people, for the people.

And anyone who thinks rule by corporations is better than rule by democracy i.e. themselves, is very confused.
