> In practice I'd prefer a world without government and with companies tracking me over a government that steals half of my income and protect me from "evil" trackers.

What does "in practice" mean here?

I get the sense that when people say things like this, they think folks would have the lifestyles they currently have in the US, but much better because they don't have to pay any tax. In reality, a world without government would be run by the type of people who run Russia right now.

Great if you're connected to enough strongmen to be an oligarch I suppose but not that great for anyone else.
