anarcho-capitalism = laissez faire capitalism, and yes, you're absolutely right.
The primary political environment, ongoing in the US right now, is a battle between these two elements with the Democrats forwarding the aims of collectivists, and the republicans forwarding the aims of individualists.
However, there are some fundamental ponzi-esque elements in the current model those of us who are relatively satisfied with the current equilibrium point want to see addressed, and neither party gives a fuck to address them because they're both exploiting them to their benefit.
This secondary argument is one of Meritocracy vs Nepotism.
