Very succintly put, and straight to the point. Even minarchism could not
be achieved by compromising or negotiating with the current system.

This is not so certain, crypto-anarchy would of course be achieved if
anarchy in general were achieved, this could occur if strong action were
taken such as nuking DC. I believe more selective systems such as AP will
eventually cause the downfall of government, and will do so in a much
more ethical and discrimatory manner.

I don`t believe they are at all comparable statements, the first is a cop
out, the second simply carries the discussion to its logical conclusion,
that agressors must be punished and agressive acts must be prevented.
