3. The only way to be truly individualistic without having to worry about having your organs being cooked on a frying pan tomorrow or the government breaking down your doors and killing your entire family.

4. The only economic system where you have an opportunity to be wealthy instead of shit poor like the rest of your neighbors.

5. The only economic system where society, technology, and the ingenuity advances as a whole.
Socialists like to believe that everyone will do their civic duty and contribute to society, and the people who do not will be punished by people as a whole. But what they don't understand is that humanity will always be greedy, and while they will for a time happily work themselves to death for "society," they will eventually disregard their duties and not work unless compensation is involved.

Communists like to believe that with the trusty government watching their back, nothing will happen to them. But what they don't realize is that one word to come out at the wrong place at the wrong time will get them in prison and beaten and whipped.

Anarchists like to believe that with no government watching their backs, everybody will do the right thing. But what they don't understand is that humanity is a violent species (like all animals) and without a set of governing laws or any set jobs, then we will revert to our prehistoric state and every idea humanity has ever thought of will just be thrown out the window.
