I remember that time that my parents got to vote for Nick Civella as the local crime boss and got to confront him, with no consequences whatsoever, at an open meeting about how he was spending the Central States Pension Fund on Vegas casinos.

lol "taxation is just like the mafia". 12 year olds and libertarians are so alike

If you trace how first governments formed… it’s literally true. When the mafia gets everyone in its ranks it becomes the defacto ruling body.

In present times, you can look at cartels providing government services of better quality than the government itself in some parts of the world.
