The complicated part isn’t making the flat thing, it’s getting control of all that real estate so that no one stops you from making it.
This confuses and angers the Statist

>With instructions made by corporations.
is that the EV-1? thats an electric car, easy to repair my ass. you fucking retard
The only roads that would be built would be the ones that benefit the financiers aka corporations and the rich, so if your not making a 6 figure salary I suspect you will be walking to work every morning. You also still would need a government agency to enforce traffic laws on these roads. There are host of other issues I could raise but this is the main one.
Why did the austrians like Mises came up with this self sabotaging meme that only the government could create roads?
I mean, you could, but the problem is fighting tooth and fucking nail for the proper liscencing and registration required for all the equipment. You can't just buy an industrial-grade road paver, steamroller, and asphalt mixer unless your plan is to fix every road with a dinky-ass, 15-gallon mixer and ridiculous manual labour.
Im not sure why a private corporation would have to scale down just because its not the government paying their salaries ? If anything a private corporation would be more efficient with their spending
It's not about "scaling down", the state/county government owns said roads, and you need proper liscencing in order to alter them. That's why construction and roadside repair companies are contracted.
The alternative is somehow purchasing the roads from the state government...
>we need men with guns to extort money from me because its the only way I will ever get anyone to build me a road
We need a small government especially for military defense (nukes etc, cant have everyone running around with their own McNuke(TM)).
What we have now is ridiculous though: the working man is taxed to pay for the welfare of Shaniqua's 7 illigitimate children: we are racing towards idiocracy.
I thought the argument was being made under the premise that the government would no longer own said roads and instead would be left to private companies to build. In this scenario a private company could construct roads for corporations or collectives who wish to use their land, now I understand you would still need regulations and traffic laws to be enforced but that's a different issue. Also I could see the lack of a central planner would result in a less efficient system but the cities in Canada anyways are disasters even with the government oversight.
