All that you claimed is that “privitization of government” would not “go over well”. But “anarchy” would not “go over well”, either. So you proved nothing.
I tried to post this post yesterday but it failed, somewhat. Anyway, here it is:
In the context of all human action, two categories exist: means and ends; and a potential connection between those two categories exists: a causal connection. In relevant relation to this discussion, a policy is a means and a result of a policy is an ends.
If you were to be a utilitist, a consequentialist, you would choose which policy to advocate due to (a) what result you desire and (b) what policy causally connects to that result. In such a case, therefore, your utilitisticness, your consequentialisticness, would be your principle.
If you were to be a nonconsequentialist, you would choose which policy to advocate due to some other consideration. In such a case, your nonconsequentialisticness, as an example, some code of “natural law”, would be your principle.
