Wrong. You cannot give any examples of where wealth and prosperity exist independent of the security and rule of law that government provides.
Government creates the basis upon which free enterprise can have the confidence to invest and create. Without government and rule of law free enterprise is limited to crude and limited investment because it lacks the security of rule of law and the ability to enforce contracts consistently.
I am a realist and certainly do not see government as an ultimate authority but rather as an essential part of the human organisational structures required to maximise wealth and security.
Your blind and blinkered faith in 'free markets' ignores their need for a secure environment of law and security upon which to thrive.
Without the complex and difficult problem of government solved and provided 'free markets' incapable of functioning well.
You Libertarians put the cart before the horse.
But hey, look out of any window and show me a single example of a wealthy and sustained economy where there was or is no government underpinning it and prove me wrong...
What do you want me to do for you?
This (Libertarian ideology) is all a dream.
