Why would if be financially beneficial for a Private Protection Agency
(PPA) that was being payed by 6 million Jews to merge with a PPA that was
being payed by 40 million Germans that want to murder them? A Jew would be
willing to pay whatever it took, up to and including his entire net worth,
to keep from getting murdered, but I doubt if even the most rabid anti
semite would pay more than 1 or 2% to murder a Jew. In
anrcho-libertarianism you can have much more influence with things that are
*REALLY* important to you than just one man one vote.

I agree, what I have just said is of little practical use. Yes that would
be the way to go if we were starting from scratch but we are not and there
is virtually no chance of getting there before a technological singularity
occurs. I always knew I'd have to modify my libertarian views someday but
AI has been advancing faster than I expected so I had to make the
modification sooner than I expected.  We must make the best of the
institutions that already exist, like government, and try to push it in the
right direction. But Trump is pushing the government in the opposite
direction that is needed.
