Do you genuinely know the cost of maintaining those tracks? Cause there’s a reason we just use roads

Edit: I made this comment before coffee and see I’m being a bit dumb here haha

I have no idea. They told me I should learn to code when I tried to get them to explain it.

An irrelevant question after your argument has been shot down

Imagine being the first person to answer without insults or smug stupidity since I first commented under this post, and I wasn’t insulting others then.

Did you really choose which firestation was gonna send a truck?? That’s the problem with using a “free market” argument for emergencies, yeah sure it’s great to choose between different emergency providers when there’s nothing happening.

Yes. You need to have at least twice as many firestations to have a choice, if you want to choose between fire services, though.

Or if we are talking only about choosing between insurance companies, then there’s no problem, but with only one fire service and some imagined jungle capitalism you’ll have a problem, because it’ll be very expensive as a monopolist.

I don’t see a problem with having twice as many firestations, as in two parallel services. They don’t have only one landline at the firestation after all. They have HA in any mass service system.

This all is unimportant, though, since it ignores the fact that something like a state fire service, only one separate from police, military and others and with administration formed separately from them is still allowable for ancap. Where membership would be like citizenship in our world, and a member gets the service on usual conditions (but pays something like taxes), while a non-member will pay a lot that one time. It’s similar to state healthcare being free for citizens, but not for foreign nationals in some countries.

Notice how it requires no coercion or monopoly, so perfectly acceptable for ancap.

But when a fire starts or you have a heart attack?

See my solution.
