No
I just don’t feel its a good idea
Fair enough
Seems like it would collapse into a bunch of small militaristic groups
Trhe whole premise of it is for it to not be as organized as the gov so it cannot have a monopoly on force like the gov has.
Yeah
I get what your saying
But consider say Coca-Cola
They have a lot of facilities
That need guarding
So they would have to employ a lot of security
yes?
Now say you have a competitor like pepsi
Would it not result in an arms race between the companies
Perhaps leading to the bombing of eachother’s factories and offices, etc...
warfare is expensive. It produces rather unpredictabe results as you can imagine. So from the standpoint of both firms it makes much more sense to agree on a private court, that will settle disputes between them
It can be
But at the same time it can also be quite effective
yes but the cost of it would outweigh the benefit
Not always though
As I was saying this seems that everything would just collapse down into smaller governments
Perhaps city/county sized
Perhaps state sized
smaller governments? Not really since competition woudl stop that from happening since government create monopolies, monopolies are impossible in free markets.
So your saying
That
A private militia couldn’t cover say... a city?
But guys you are missing the bigger question
The real question you should ask is ..
Wanna sprite cranberry?
Yes plz
There would be different kind of militias
and yes
different firms would try to top over each other with better protection
You agree that one may cover an entire city
gov has no incentives
At some point though
A militia would be able to cover a city, correct?
if it monopolizes, but as ive stated monopolies are impossible in free markets. Govs create monopolies so that would not happen
a militia from a single firm?
