THE ABOLITION OF THE GOVERNMENT MONOPOLY OF SERVICES
Central government should not have the power to decide who can provide various services, as it is unnecessary and undesirable. While some services may currently be best provided by government agencies, there should be no legal monopoly granted to any government for these services, which include education, transport, utilities, and social insurance. This ensures that competition can lead to better quality services and protect against exploitation. For instance, a government's control over broadcasting can threaten political freedom, just like restricting press freedom. A crucial issue is the government's monopoly on issuing money, which needs to change to create a truly free economic system. Allowing private enterprise to offer different forms of money would lead to better choices for the public. This principle should be clearly stated in the constitution to ensure that people have the right to use any form of money they prefer. Explicitly recognizing this right is essential for safeguarding individual freedoms within a society.
