Yes, I do agree that there will always be someone who will take power, but I still think that it is right to strive towards anarchy.
I bet you have probably heard this argument before, but there would be private police, the purpose of which would not be to enforce laws, but to defend the rights of people who's rights get violated. They would not be paid if they didn't do their jobs properly.
As for paid courts, if a person wanted to charge a poor person for a crime, the prosecutor would have to pay for the trial, or else the trial wouldn't happen. The courts would be much better because of the rating system. If a court gets too crappy of a rating, nobody would use that court, and that court would go out of business. But courts would be cheaper, because the judges/arbiters would be competing against each other for customers. And also, there is the system where if you didn't have any money, you could get a coupon for a trial, and the coupon would state how much work you would have to do to pay that coupon off.
Of course, I now see the problem that the two might disagree in their choice of court. How would that work? I will have to think on that for a spell.
I'll have to think about poor people as well. I thought that the poor people would be the responsibility of charities, and should not be collected from people with the threat of violence (taxes.) But if there were no charities, what would help a poor person in a system like this?
