That's a lovely assertion. Now justify why it's OK to raid
one man's wallet and make him pay for another man's children's
education.

Or another man's security, or another man's road, or another man's
hospitalization, or another man's airport, or another man's levee ...

Exactly

Do you have a alternative suggestion that is distinguishible
from anarchy?

Yes, in this case I do. Use the force of government exclusively as
an instrument for the preservation of individual liberty. This
boils down to the government interdicting only in matters of force,
fraud, and/or threat (since all harm to individual liberty can
be reduced to one of those cases). Everything else should be
outside the purview of government and its ability to use force.
This is approximately (but imperfectly) what is seen in the early
and foundational documents of the US.

BTW, this has to do with GW's Drinking (or not) as GW's Drinking
(or not) has to with woodworking. Shall we call a truce and
end this misbegotten thread? I see some of the other wreckers are
disgruntled having never apparently learned the filter and kill
functions ....
