    Ah yes, insurance against fire. I can’t see a problem ever happening there.

    Wait, that’s already a problem?

    So if I get this right, your solution is to do something insurance companies aren’t willing to do.

    Should they be forced to?

      Adding to the pile of stupid questions:

      Why don’t the insurance companies just offer it at a higher rate, until it’s profitable for them?

      No, it’s not, the article is obviously not in ancap context, it’s in USA, California, 2024 context.

      Humanity is doomed.

        What would make insuring such homes profitable in your world?

          An irrelevant question after your argument has been shot down

            You didn’t shoot down my argument. You just said “nuh-uh.”

              Your argument is in the wrong context -> it’s invalid -> shot down.

              You’re simply denying things you don’t like and pretend to be winning something somewhere. Go away

                You said insurance would cover firefighting.

                I’m saying insurance can’t afford to do that now.

                Your response to that is “the ancap world isn’t like the world now.”

                Yes, I know. So what’s the difference?

                  A company may not be able to afford prolonging contracts without raising prices, but otherwise be able to fulfill this role.

                  Maybe people shouldn’t settle in places too prone to fires.

                  Maybe there’s some regulation involved in the first sentence which won’t be in ancap.

                  Whatever. Ancap being worse than alternative in some criterion doesn’t mean defeat of ancap, ancap being better in some other criterion doesn’t mean victory of ancap.

                    Dude, you can’t solve the problem of fighting fires for everyone regardless of where they live or how much money they have, something we’ve already solved.
