If the US was completly prvitized, it would not be like Iraq. Iraq already had a very strong system of government in place. While the US toppled the existing government, held elections, and new people became the government, the fact is, replacing one government with another is not the same as replacing no government with a government. It is diffivult to convey orders this way. This was my second point, but obviously you did not read that.
I do not think that the US will become like Iraq for any sustained period of time for the reason I just mentioned. If another country attacks, it will be met with heavy resistance. Sure, it might get a little rough, but not as rough as the current world situation. At most, the conquering army would be able to conquer a small portion of the American area. Right now, the rights of all Americans are violated daily. We have already been conquered.

So, basically, you'd be willing to see America reduced to a state similar to that of Iraq, with ubiquitous street violence and guerilla warfare, just so you could have privitized defense? Very interesting.

So, basically, you'd be willing to see America continuously attack poor third world countries, have millitary basses all around the world, committ the most brazen acts of terrorism, divert valuable resources from the market, and enslave its citizens, just so you can
feel a little more safe? Very intersting.
