          obviously an-caps are dipshits but how do they not realize that this fact entirely destroys their entire political platform? the government is bad because it gets in the way of corporations! my friend, this government is corporations.

            Corporations exist only because of crony capitalism, in an ancap society it’s nothing but small business owners and entrepreneurs, is their unironic answer.

              well, I’m sure none of those small businesses will grow faster and absorb the others leading to centralization and monopoly, so everything’s fine.

                They wouldn’t because it would violate the NAP. They’ll only grow up to a certain point and stop long before a monopoly, because reasons.

            ‘Monopolies only happen due to government intervention. They totally do not happen in a system where a bunch of rich people compete for the market and the winners get to have an advantage in further competition while the losers get to be pushed out. This totally does not lead to merging of companies and accumulation of capital in a few hands’.
