No.

No, I can't give you an example of a successful state without a government because it hasn't as fare as I know been tried, except as a result of Chaos and not by choice. Can you give me an example of a successful peaceful sate with a government? No, you can't, because that's an oxymoron...

Slavery is not voluntary. Slaves do not sign contracts agreeing to work if they can't pay something. Yes, all the same consequences that we have today will probably happen, but it will be based on voluntarism, and not forced upon people. Taxes are justified if people freely sign a contract to...

I'll answer. It seems that you already understand that taxes are violate the NA-principle (?), so I'll jump to the bill-problem. One can not break the non-aggression principle no matter what. But the enforcement of bills-problem can be solved by agreeing to singn a contract that says if you...

Any particulrar perticular part you want me to read? Or should I link you North-Korea and we can call it even? How do you know this? What about the alternative of a peaceful society in which all forms of aggression is fought? With police founded by people who want to be protected.

This is ridiculous. Are you suggesting that paying taxes is voluntary? People might have agreed to maintain the system, but not all who are included in that system agreed to keep it. They are forced to pay by the threat of violence. Violence is no good basis for a ethical society. I don't...

Your implementation of anarchy is purely unconvincing speculation, which I don't buy. Also you seem to think that you can decide what other people can do and that you can decide that WE should break the NA principle because you think it would lead to less violence. This is absurd. You don't get...

I was trying to be funny, but I guess it didn't work. My answer to the previous question about John Doe would be, in all seriousness: RichardMNixon said he was lying between two privately owned roads, perhaps the people owning the roads would be the ones to take care of the body? What would...

As long as you can do something without initiation force, then go ahead. But you do not have the right to break the non-aggression principle no matter how scared you are about the consequences. Neither do I, or any of us. If we start by breaking the NA principle, then we are criminals...

He lies there and rot I suppose. Perhaps some crows will feed on him.

We have a system where the biggest mob can tell other people how to live, who to marry, what to put in their bodies and take their money and use it for whatever they like. I was a socialist for the 20 first years of my life. I then changed my mind because of the non-aggression principle. Not...

You really are looking for every single problem you can find, aren't you? Why is that? The same exact problems can be found in the system we have now. I could probably write a long reply and attempt to answer these questions, but I think you can do so yourself if you give it a try. Do you...

By writing in the contract how it should be enforced. By signing the contract, both parties agree voluntary to receive whatever enforcement is in the contract. O' lord! Did you think I was against self defence? I thought I had made that pretty clear, but sorry if I didn't. If people are...

I don't get how you can think that people won't defend themselves like they always have. You should also remember that it's fully possible (and preferable) to have a government that protects people from violence, fraud and theft, without it having to be financed through force. You can have...

This is very speculative. You seem to think that if there isn't a government everyone gets attacked. Why? By who? This is almost to speculative for me to answer. What I do want to say is: I don't care. We have to start with agreeing not to use violence and force. Then deal with whatever...
