Ah yes. Here. Turns out many AnCaps agree with my preference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarcho-capitalism ==================================================================== ==================================================================== Like classical liberalism, and unlike anarcho-pacifism, anarcho-capitalism permits the use of force, as long as it is in the defense of persons or property. The permissible extent of this defensive use of force is an arguable point among anarcho-capitalists. Retributive justice, meaning retaliatory force, is often a component of the contracts imagined for an anarcho-capitalist society. Some believe prisons or indentured servitude would be justifiable institutions to deal with those who violate anarcho-capitalist property relations, while others believe exile or forced restitution are sufficient." ==================================================================== ==================================================================== Oh gosh, I am not the only one who can Reason this out.
