[On November 29], Coinbase suffered a major defeat at the hands of the Internal Revenue Service, nearly a year after the case was initially filed. A California federal court has ordered Coinbase to turn over identifying records for all users who have bought, sold, sent, or received more than $20,000 through their accounts in a single year between 2013 and 2015. Coinbase estimates that 14,355 users meet the government's requirements.

In short, I dispute your claim that the free markets couldn't do a better job.
Your alzheimers riddled mind seems to be responding to someone else Ms Rand.
I suggested that there were some essential government services -- courts for example, or national defence. I also suggested that those that benefit the most should pay the most. You started rabbiting on about the fire brigade, and how contracts are magically enforced even if nobody pays for the enforcement of those contracts. Either that or you were suggesting the person with the biggest gun gets to decide all the laws - in which case that would be Putin.
But by all means keep yabbering on about the fire service, and see how your land plumets in value as your city burns.
