Actually, while I am registered Libertarian after half a century as a Republican, in actual fact with no window dressing, I am an anarchist. I happen to believe that societies can co-exist with neighbors without big brother telling everyone what size toilet tank they must have, what guns one may own, whether or not you must wear a helmet. Considering our nation is in free fall, we may have anarchy whether or not anyone wants it. Everyone thinks anarchy is mass chaos - that is only if people cannot converse and reason with those around us. I cannot believe how many conservatives cannot bring themselves to even talk about anarchy realistically.

About the only thing I know (or think I know) about anarchy is that it is a complete lack of government. In any business dealings between two people or groups of people, at some point, there are bound to be disputes that arise where the parties cannot reach an equitable or a peaceful resolution. Under our current system that's when the dispute is settled by an arbiter or the courts. How would that work under anarchy?
I'm also under the impression that anarchy means no laws. Is that correct? How would what are now crimes like robbery, rape, murder be handled? What about burglary, theft?
