Why are people so affraid of anarchy?

I like how he completely ignored me once I brought up Medicare and Medicaid. Pretty hilarious, actually.

You aren't responding much to my arguments about the governments causing violence among people either, are you?

You didn't exactly explain why you think insurance companies couldn't exist without a government.

Because there would be no mechanism for redressing breach of contract except taking your business to another company which may well do the exact same thing. In the meantime, the patient's still dying.

Well, numerous examples have been given in this thread, IIRC, but my #1 gripe would be the ever-widening income gap between the haves and the have-nots.

Furthermore, I don't have a problem with capitalism per se, I have a problem with insufficiently regulated capitalism.

But people haven't really explained WHY and HOW capitalism is bad for poor people, just that it is.

I guess I just haven't been able to understand what it is about Capitalism that causes this gap between classes that some folks disagree with.

Because the more money you have, the more you're able to invest, and the more you earn, meaning you've got more money to invest, meaning you earn more ...

And that is greatly simplified.
