This reminds me of the talk on anarchy by Roderick Long, http://mises.org/mp3/MU2004/Long2.mp3 where he mentions that "objectivists" seem to be very worried about people "dying without heirs", they bring it up over and over. > Who decides that a > criminal who hits someone in the head and causes them such severe > brain damage that they can no longer make such decisions on their > own behalf, to press charges? Individual responsibility and individual liberty. "Who" becomes a moot question, always answered by "an interested individual". This is the exact opposite response from "there aught to be a law". "There aught to be a law" deserves entire books and college courses dedicated to debunking that reflex until anyone who dares utter the phrase is instantly known for the violent, amoral thug they are.
