And so you just repeat yourself... again...

I did take responsibility from the outset for this very thing that you claim.... that authority as described in the arricle is not voluntaryist...

I disagree with you and Larken, very clearly, as laid out in the article. It is my contention that so long as the choice is clear, people may volunteer to participate in that authority or secede from it. So it is their VOLUNTARY choice. If they agree, they are participating in the codes and rules that go along with that choice. If they choose to.leave, at any time, they are free to go.

So even though that government would involve all the things listed, the people would have the choice to be involved in that governemnt, and while you and all other voluntaryists would immediately remove yourselves, as I would if another did this same thing, those who are not as educated and liberated in themselves, can have leadership and guidance toward it.

You and Larken can pretend that everything wpuld just work out if governance disappeared overnight, but the reality is, many large or small governments would just take the place. I think Anarchy and Voluntaryism are ideals to reach for societally, live by individually, but will never be truly achieved by the masses. And you can continue to think you have it all figured out, but I think the adolescence is yours, to only accept the conclusions ypu have formed and a morality fit to your own interests, and to not appreciate the history of man and all its lessons.

You simply want to judge me and leave. I challenge you to a debate, not on the comment section, but at an agreed place and time.

You never answered my question of what you would do...

Authority over others can never be compatible with voluntary choice as it is by definition the ability and allowance to act against voluntary choice.

If I was Queen of the world I would declare all instruments of Government null and void ending with my own.
