> The 'say' you have in government is much smaller than the 'say' you have in using Uber. I can choose not to use Uber any time I please. I can not choose not to be pulled over for speeding, or opt out of murder laws temporarily.

Sure you can. Just leave their jurisdiction. I've heard Somalia is nice.

Just leave their jurisdiction.

Their "jurisdiction" is invalid, so why should we leave?

It's invalid because you don't like it? I don't like many things, doesn't make them go away.

What have you heard about Somalia? Please give a brief over view of what you know about it, and what about it you heard was nice.

It demonstrates all the benefits of the very weak government some people wish for.

Please enlighten me on the quality of life in Somalia while it had a central government, vs before it had one. Statistics are slow and unreliable coming out of there, so feel free to limit you answer to the Barre Administration, as well as those areas that during the Civil war were under control of the Islamic Courts Union and the Transitional Goverments.

I look forward to being amazed by the breadth of your knowledge about the history and conditions of Somalia and how it pertains to libertarianism.
