And what'S wrong there? You cannot claim services if you do not fulfill your returning part of the deal. You want a service, you pay. You don't pay, you get no service. Also, that example is outside the context of Hoppe'S model, but is embedded in the context of a completely different system.

Having a competition between service providers, cannot hurt. May it be within or between autonomous regions.

Too many people today take many things all for granted, mas if they would have a right to demand a free ride here, a free service being given there. I totally disagree with that attitude of ever growing expectations. It is one reason why we are bancrupt and our social nanny system are no longer affordable.

Anyhow, you guys now come with very specific things that to debate maybe is a bit pointless at this stage. Not even Hoppe argues anywhere in such microscopic detail already, and even says that that is impossible as long as no general draft has been established.
