I mean, you literally brought up, the strongest counterpoint to your own arguement Manus. Did you not bother to research paved roads during the Industrial revolution before posting?
I mean, governments did exist between the Roman Empire and the Industrial revolution pretty strong ones at that.
I guess you could argue that people won't have paved roads in areas where there isn't much demand... but that's already happening. Lots of paved roads around the US and everywhere else are falling apart because local groups don't want to pay the costs needed to maitnain the roads.
You brought up the biggest counter arguement to your own arguement, by referencing the one time when ONLY private companies were capable of making paved roads after constant government failure. I mean, don't you look up and research this stuff before you put an arguement down on paper?
