I know that, and that is why I know also that pure Laissez Faire (as a formal form of "government") will never succeed.

It is more a "mindset" where THE INDIVIDUAL fights an eternal bout where the enemies are:

1. the government (because wants to tax and control your money and your existence)

2. the religious elite (because they want to control your mind and morality)

3. the masses (because the great majority are non-producers and all they hope for is a generous government tit and a cone-head to tell them they will be OK when they die.)

I know, we are running out of space to create Nirvana... that is also a good reason to buy real estate, beach preferably as it is the most desired.

Ironcally, however, this new "competition environment" is forcing western governments (except Europe --of course--) to begin treating their member as clients in stead of vassals, otherwise massive migrations will occur to those environments where individuals will prosper better.

Perhaps a hybrid form of government called ... controlled anarchy -gg
