"How would an anarchist society deal with X" always seems like a silly question to me. Some of the answer is always gonna be "How the [censored] do I know?" Right? The whole point of anarchy is that unrestricted voluntary action is always better than manually determined action. In other words, the force of the market does things that we aren't capable of. So why then does it make sense to ask "How exactly would the market find a solution to THIS!?" If I could answer that, I'd probably think I should be dictator rather than think we should all trust voluntary action.

The point, partly, is that NOBODY KNOWS OR CAN KNOW what exactly the market would do. The market is better than us. It finds solutions that we can't. People can speculate pretty well on how the market might behave, but never having experienced a truly free market, there will always be some solution that we can't know or empirically prove. There has to be. Otherwise you don't believe in the free market in the first place.

The real question is what would YOU do (about this thing that you apparently care about). And then from there you can ask yourself whether centralized regulation would help you or hurt you. If it helps, your idea is probably a bad one. I'd ask why these people have to be forced into this idea of yours that is supposedly critical for their best interest. Doesn't seem to add up.
