      Funny thing about ancap libertarianism is that they’ve correctly identified that power can lead to tyranny, but they’re completely oblivious to the power that corporatism (the conclusion of lassez-faire capitalism) results in.

      States always wind up being run by self-interested psychopaths.

      That’s not a “flaw;” it’s the fundamental nature of the concept.
