More leftist hyperbole, assuming that all of a sudden multi-million man armies are gonna invade and take over.
Ever hear of militias?
If it happens, oh well. But who wouldn't volunteer to defend their property?
It's the free market. They could run their business any way they want. But if their service was unsatisfactory no one would use them.
It's not leftist hyperbole, it's reality. Bad people exist in this world... if you're going to create a society, you need a viable, responsible means of defending it, and voluntary militias aren't going to cut it against major organized compulsory militaries.
And you never did answer what happens with unowned land in your "country". Who defends that? What's to stop another country from annexing the vacant land right next to yours and building a military base on it, or exploiting resources from it? It's technically no one's property, so...

Once again, there is no "country," only property owners. Any unclaimed land would be able for homesteading; once that land is claimed it is the responsibility of the person who claimed it.
Within the last week you're leaving prayer services only to find out the U.S. government fired missiles at your house while you were inside the mosque.
That's what happened to some folks in Faizabad City, Afghanistan 4 days ago.
Now that's why I had to leave earlier and get to work. Those homes aren't going to explode on their own, are they? Had to generate revenue to tax to make it happen.
You’re funny, presuming to know (let alone understand) what I studied. I’ll help you out; there’s more to economics the Keynesian theory, but you already know that are are playing the ignorance card, yet again.
