[quote=spdrun]Unlike private business, government and its police are special cases.
(a) the employees are literally given a power to kill
(b) people have no choice whether to do business with a given government. People can walk out of a restaurant with a rude waiter. They can’t just walk away from an encounter with a violent cop.[/quote]
Yes, customers do have a choice. When you move to a country, state, county, or city that has certain taxes, regulations, rules, ways of operating, etc., you are agreeing to the terms of that location. If you don’t like the terms of the agreement, don’t move there, or move somewhere else if you are already there. You can always choose to walk away.
BTW, you posted too quickly! I meant to correct my paragraph in my last post…change employee’s to employer’s.
