Replying to Avatar Kevin's Bacon

People often say name an anarcho-capitalist nation, so I name 2 or 3. Then they say no, name one that's "rrRELEVANT TO TODAYYY" as if the laws of economics change every decade. Anarchy was always relevant. And it becomes more possible the more options and capital exist in a market, the more decentralized the rule of law is, the more people speak openly. The tech we have now makes things SO easy to do, and it has made commerce and human interaction all but borderless. If anything, an ancap polylegal society is MORE relevant, more achieveable than it has been for over a century. The last time we had an entire nation in pure anarcho-capitalism was in the small Republic of Cospaia in the early 1800s.

We're going to see a lot more of that this century. And we're gonna see international commerce and recognition of people's rights to change protection agencies or change regulatory packages. There's already international ID programs for cheap that offer "digital residency." This gives access, backed by a government that taxes 0% on income, to legal documents proving your identity so you can sign up for an account with any business anywhere and get around the bullshit regulations like on the U.S.

Some other stateless societies besides Cospaia that come to mind: Celtic Ireland, Viking Iceland and the (not so) Wild West
