Do you not acknowledge the role governments have always played in co-ordinating with private enterprise to maximise the wealth creation of the collective that is known as a nation state?
The Wests relative wealth is based upon its historical ability to capture and control global resources from less well organised nations/peoples and use those resources to its advantage.
Libertarians seem blind to this age old reality.
Study some history and you will see it is ALWAYS a combination of the state and private enterprise that together achieve resource hegemony. It is never private enterprise in isolation. This is one of the many giant blind spots of Libertarians!
Provide examples of when it was not that combination and prove me wrong. SILENCE.

What do you mean by "always"? They certainly haven't literally always played this role. And while maximizing wealth creation may be the goal, we have no way of knowing if they were successful in doing that, or if the money would have been better spent elsewhere.
Are you able to answer this question: How will we pay to fix climate change on a bitcoin standard? Maybe you live in a place where you aren't allowed to speak freely? If so I understand, surveillance is really getting out of hand these days.
