Asking an anarchist how every conceivable existing public function could be re-created in a stateless society is directly analogous to asking an economist what the economy will look like down to the last detail 50 years from now. What will be invented? How will interplanetary contracts be enforced? Exactly how will time travel affect the price of a rental car? What megahertz will computers be running at? What will operating systems be able to do? And so on and so on.

In the absence of the gold standard, there is no way to protect savings from confiscation through inflation. [...] This is the shabby secret of the welfare statists' tirades against gold.

If one grasps this, one has no difficulty in understanding the statists' antagonism toward the gold standard.

There is no social entity with a good that undergoes some sacrifice for its own good. There are only individual people, different individual people, with their own individual lives. Using one of these people for the benefit of others, uses him and benefits the others. Nothing more.
- — Robert Nozick
The "private sector" of the economy is, in fact, the voluntary sector [...] the "public sector" is, in fact, the coercive sector.
- — Henry Hazlitt
We have to move away. Environmental activists don’t use logic or reason.
- — Stanley, in South Park
Always do right. This will surprise some people and astonish the rest.
