That is all. I can't really respond to you because you haven't really made a coherent point. I'd be glad to discuss this topic with you if choose to write intelligently about it.

So before when there were articles coming out describing how crappy Somalia was, Somalia wasn't considered a fair example of AC. But now that someone writes something positive, it is all of a sudden fair game? Sorry guys, but you can't have your cake and eat it too.

One more time: is Somalia a good example *right now* or not? We can even assume that the article is accurate, as long as you allow everyone else to quote the 38757823785789279832 equally accurate articles that show how much of a hellhole the place is.

Somalia is not an example of pure anarcho capitalism since there are intervening factions and considering the past history's left overs. In addition, effective measures of private property have not fully arisen.

What we do know from this case is the effect of removing government control/planning and freeing individuals on a large basis.

Further, no one ever said Somalia is not a [censored] hole. All they said was they were better off without government than with. Why dont you or anyone else try and dispute a point on this line?
