About
A common anti-governmental argument asserts that government cannot create wealth.
The truth of this depends a great deal on exactly how one defines government, create, and wealth, and given certain definitions of those terms there is probably a case to be made that this is a reasonable statement.
However, to whatever extent it is true, the same argument can be made for any organization including for-profit corporations.
This therefore cannot be used as an argument for anarcho-capitalism.
