U.S.—With the government shutdown in effect, life has felt incomplete for many Americans. “Everything is just too easy—it’s boring,” said restaurant owner Gloria Morgan, “and I realized it’s because we’re missing an essential challenge in life: soulless bureaucrats posing arbitrary rules on us.”
One of the primary functions of the government is to ignorantly muck around in the business of others, but the shutdown has hampered that. Thus citizens have been forced to try to fill that void themselves. “Today I just suddenly decided large sodas weren’t allowed,” said Morgan. “It was an annoying, pointless obstacle the whole day—it was like the government was still around.”
“I arbitrarily decided I couldn’t use plastic bags in school lunches,” said Arlene Williams, mother of three. “It was really irritating to deal with. It really made me feel like there was still some bureaucrat out there not caring about me.”
Not everyone found it easy to take the government’s place, though. “I tried imposing random rules on myself, but it wasn’t the same,” said business owner Patrick Stanley. “The problem is I understand my business too well, so a lot of the rules actually made sense. I really need someone with no understanding of my company or economics making these rules, or it just doesn't feel right.

In an an-cap (anarcho-capitalist) society, there is no rule of law, only the NAP (non-aggression principle) and the threat of retaliatory force should someone violate the NAP. Now, the NAP itself is not a foreign idea. Much of western Enlightenment philosophy and modern society is built upon this principle, and indeed many of us live our lives according to it even today. A belief in or adherence to the NAP and why going outside and lighting your neighbor’s yard on fire with a flamethrower is considered anomalous behavior.
The state’s original purpose was to act as an arbiter between individuals and as an enforcer of the NAP in cases where this principle was violated. Since then, the state has taken on a plethora of other forms, some forms of which can be argued against to a great degree of success and validity. But, as it is true now and will be for the foreseeable future, the answer to problematic government is not total and complete abolition of the institution. We’ll explore why this is the case in discussing what law enforcement would look like under such a system.I am the owner of http://www.ezmangaforum.com
