There isn't one single alternative (warlord anarchy) to an established government.

I had to read this a few times before I understood. What you mean to say is: "There is more than one alternative to an established government" - what you said made it sound as if there are
no alternatives to established government.
Anyway, I'm willing to listen to the alternatives.

Another false dichotomy. You presume that the non-existence of the state would prevent the existence of a property defense market.

Is the 'property defense market' not just a cute way of saying that warlord anarchy would be replaced with warlord order?

This "warlord problem" is often put forward as an argument against anarcho-capitalism. It's unfounded.

Care to propose a workable alternative?
