 ::: Utopia is not an option: coercion can never be reduced to zero, because there will always be crime.  Therefore if a libertarian must insist on zero coercion, then a libertarian must be a fool.  Now, I am an anarchist rather than a minarchist because I do not trust the state to restrain itself; it's too easy to rationalize a little aggression, and then a little more.  But I have the honesty to acknowledge that this is my judgement, rather than a necessary consequence of a logical axiom.  — 19:24
