<p>When there is anarchy there are no laws. With no laws, people will do whatever they feel like as long as it benefits them. This leads to theft, looting, riots, public works deteriorating, etc. (what else do you think would happen? People will start paving roads on their own because they feel like it? lol). Baisc economics: people will do whatever they can to advance their utility. Governments put laws into place to make sure no one person advances their utility at the cost of someone elses.</p>
<p>Libertarian is the closest to anarchy in terms of freedoms. There is minimal federal government (just enough to provide national defense, courts, police, and maybe a few other bear essientials), and people can do whatever they feel like as long as it doesn’t harm anyone else. This is ideal because it assumes people are naturally good and with the extra money they save due to government taxes/inefficienies they will donate this money to charity. Where the government service end, privitization begins. In reality, people are not as nice as some people want to believe. If you give most people a $10,000 bonus, they are going to buy a jet ski/save it for retirement and not give it to the poor for food/subsidized housing.</p>
