Pyramid of Capitalism

The thing is, it ain't small, darlin'.

Stone age communities were quite small.

Like I won't probably stab you simply because I can, but I probably won't have to respect your property rights if there are no law and no one to enforce it.

And no property rights, dear. Without law: 'right's do not exist. Without force: ownership cannot be enforced

But if you cross me badly enough I will stab you

And how do you expect those mercenaries to stay loyal to you?

I wasn't going to use them... mercs are loyal only to themselves. They are simply an example of an army without a government.

What if the opposing side offers more money?

Then you better hope the mercs hate their guts. There are reasons I would never use an army, and mercs exaggerate most of what I hate in armies

Well, I hope you have enough fightan' juice in you or some masterwork bastard swords if you want to survive in such a post-apocalyptic world.

Explosives, they are useful. Poisons too, far more subtle. Swords, guns, and hand-hand are last resorts.

And who said this was post-apocalyptic? 0.o Certainly not I.

And well, Rome had a government. Nearly, if not all human civilisations had some sort of government to date.
You think that Rome was based on anarchy?

It did have one. Then its government crumbled and it didn't.
Then it had a different one. Which eventually crumbled and it didn't.
It was anarchy during each of the 'it didn'ts'

I'm responding to your trollishishness because it amuses me, but can you please try harder? That response was so off the mark to mine that it would make one wonder if you read it at all.

Well, this still is no reason to abolish anything.

Not to you, perhaps... but to me? Oh yes.

It's just like I envisioned the perfect society to be.
Fallout 2.

'Perfect societies' is nonsensical tripe. Fallout 3 was superior.

I don't think they have to, since they won't ever realize such aspirations.

You work for anarcho-capitalists.
