So wait, what if some nice lady decides to set herself up as an issuer of professional licenses. Do you want her put out of a job. Are you calling her a parasite? Are you going to beat her up if she doesn't meekly do what you tell her to do, which is clearly against her own self-interest? Why must all anarchist libertarianism devolve so quickly into bloody, revolutionary violence against individuals! Won't someone think of the children!

Do we really need every thread that even tangentially mentions government on HN to devolve into this same childish nonsense?

She'd only be a parasite if she claimed a monopoly on her license and threatened any alternative with violence and imprisonment.
