it is a compromise. I don't want to live in anarchy (sorry, a libertarian world) because like extreme communism it has inherent flaws. Thus I submit to being ruled by the UK government, and actively vote in elections. However as its a compromise, no present party with a chance of winning power reflects my views, thus compromise.
However to your main point. Anonymous easy payments are a vector for corruption, crime and general bad stuff. Sure there are good usecases for it, but mostly it'll be used to avoid tax.
- jokethrowaway 6y agoI share your feelings on government but, after reading The Machinery of Freedom, I believe anarchy is worth a shot. I wonder if you would reconsider anarchy if there was a private system of entities providing government-like services and compete with each other. http://daviddfriedman.com/The_Machinery_of_Freedom_.pdf http://daviddfriedman.com/The_Machinery_of_Freedom_.pdf
