use force
taxation
But if they weren’t big enough to go tyrannical, then there is no way they could stop a decent sized group of people from banding together and looting a city
No?
Private police exists
Not too sure about anarcho capitalism
not one myself
What? IF who wasnt big enough? And yes the could go tyrannical but what would be the point of that first of all. And the second thing, as i've stated private firms, different private firms would go against these people. If you're stating that it is impossible for, lets say a high number of firms who have a high number of people working for them as militias, how is it possible for a normal military? It is more of less the same thing however those firms have high incentives to innovate and keepo the costs low since competition, the only difference is that since competition would exist, a single firm would not get as organized as the gov
and monopolise force
thats the whole point of anarcho capitalism
they wouldnt get tyrannical since they wouldnt be a monopoly
and yeah private police exists but theyre never gonna get as popular
for now
since theres gov
Or how about a scenario where a large army takes over an area and security companies aren’t able to combat it
Or how about a scenario where a large army takes over an area and government military isn't able to combat it
Thats a civil war
They happen
But they would be much rarer
why
Because when you have much smaller companies, they aren’t able to combat groups like that as well
how
since they have more incentives
Because the companies are weaker than a large centralized army
profits, competition, innovation etc
no how are they weaker
those have more incentives
and
they could not get tyrannical
since they wouldnt ever be able to form a monopoly
how are they weaker
Because they don’t have as many recourses
To build a significantly sized force
how do they not have as many recourses? how does the gov have
Because the government is an entire nation
What? Yes? And that is my point. They have a monopoly on basically everything. What stops them from going tyrannical. So to answer your other "question" about them nto being as effective. Those companies would be able to get to these resources, since nothing would stop them from getting them since they have incentives since competition. So they would be as effective as the government military
even more
probably
not probably for sure
since those companies have incentives and want their products to be sold, they have to innovate. thus get the resources needed
