While I get the frustration with current systems, forcing people to do anything—whether it’s military service, farm labor, or any other work—goes against individual freedom. In a free market, people choose the jobs that fit their skills and interests, which leads to more innovation and productivity. Forcing everyone into the same mold is just another form of government overreach. Anarcho-capitalism believes in voluntary interactions and the power of markets to self-regulate. Let people work where they’re best suited, not where the state dictates.

No it fucking doesn’t. Most people in the so-called free market are stuck in jobs they hate because they need it to afford rent. If you want to encourage innovation and productivity you need to decouple people’s ability to live from their work.
There’s always a question of where do we draw the line?
The justice system is a form of government overreach. To be truly free, everyone should be allowed to do absolutely anything, including murder and theft.
Hmm, doesn’t seem like a good idea. People might infringe on other people’s right to live, or more importantly, their private property. Maybe we should do something about it… Idk, adopt some laws, have police that can arrest you for committing a crime?
Okay, now we already have a government, but they don’t do a whole lot. Yet to some, this would still be called overreach.
Ding ding ding, it’s a fire! In your neighborhood! Who’s going to put it out? Well the private firefighters are - IF the owner first sells the house to them for cheap. Otherwise, what’s the point even?
Wait, shit… Maybe firefighters shouldn’t be private either?
Anyway, this is all too much for my tiny mind right now. You see, I grew up somewhat poor so I should’ve gone and worked the farms at the age of 7 instead of going to school, which my family shouldn’t have been able to afford under a completely fair, anarcho-capitalist system. Unfortunately, it was free for me - other people suffered and paid taxes so that I could receive free education I didn’t deserve, and the social mobility that comes with it. I now have those peoples’ blood on my hands, for they paid a little bit of income and social taxes.
