The tax payer can appeal to the police, and if the libertarian defense agency disagrees with what happens (because the person appealed to the police to arrest a person for using drugs, without harming anybody), then it can be dealt with in various ways, up to and including the libertarian defense agency bombing the police station. As far as roads go, feel free to force the libertarians to pay for the roads that they use. The great thing about libertarianism is that most of the laws they don't want to follow are laws that have absolutely no affect on a single other person. Not many people are going to care if libertarians use drugs, most of them will never even know it is happening! The main difference is that the police cannot arrest the libertarians for using drugs. The crimes libertarians engage in are all victimless crimes, they are only prosecuted because the police hunt them down, as there is not a victim involved to call the police. Of course, there are many snitches who give intelligence to the police, but they act as an extension of the police and are not victims of libertarians. PS: Silk Road is a large group of people deciding they will no longer be subject to the laws of society. Silk Road is a private defense agency. Look who is winning so far? Are the police and politicians throwing a fit trying to shut SR down? Is SR down? Libertarians are already saying fuck the state, and the private defense agencies that are willing to protect us for a fee are already starting to emerge. In the future the defense agencies will be even more powerful. Hell, look at all the money SR has made, many millions of dollars. If they invested that in running a market for the assassinations of political officials who are for the war on drugs, we would have an entire army of independent soldiers willing to take our fight for freedom to the level of offensive instead of defensive. I don't think SR has any plans to do this, but in the future there will be offensive defense agencies as well. Defensive defense agencies are willing to use security etc, to protect their customers, for a fee, but if the customers are arrested there is nothing they can do to help them. An offensive defense agency would be willing to do the same things as a defensive one perhaps, but once the customer is arrested the police who arrested them would end up with their brains blown out as well. And the offensive defense agencies are going to be just as effective at telling the state to fuck off as the defensive ones have already proven themselves to be. Make no mistake, the libertarian revolution is already here and the private defense agencies have already risen up to the state and have thus far defeated them without even the need for violence. But to fully defeat them it will likely require violent agencies as well, protecting innocent people from a ruthless attacker is great, but at some point the attacker will hurt one of the innocent people, and the market still demands an agency that will bring justice to the attacker in such cases. Sure, you can choose to pay taxes and still be a libertarian. But the current system is not libertarianism, because people who do not want to pay taxes are being forced to. So the system we have now is not libertarians and statists existing together, it is statists forcing everybody to toe the party line. It is far from only drug prohibition. Taxation is outrageous restriction of personal freedom as well. So are laws against people viewing CP. So are laws regarding the regulation of products and medicines. Essentially every single thing the government does is a full on assault against personal freedom. And the government does a lot of things, and it tries to do many more things. Government is a cancer, it will grow and grow up to the point it has killed the host. Wouldn't it be great if you could pay to prevent people from violently attacking others without paying for the drug laws to be enforced? The biggest trick the government has mind fucked you with is the notion that you need to pay for both. Nothing prevents a society where people pay for what they want and don't pay for what they don't want, it is called fucking libertarianism. Nothing stops poor people from forming unions or from pooling their money for insurance. First of all, you are wrong. Second of all, even if you were right, it wouldn't fucking matter, the rich are not the slaves of the poor anymore than the poor are the slaves of the rich. How about the poor people join unions and demand certain wages? Why don't the poor people pool their money to be able to buy group insurance and such? By the way, I wonder if poor people would rather live as poor slaves in prison or be free and poor? Because the current system right now has enslaved the poor more than any libertarian system will. You think there is not a plutocracy right now? Rich people run the world. The difference is that in a libertarian society, even though they still run the world, they cannot enslave others.
