Ah yes who can forget the Armed Postal Forces and the Teachers Brigade. The Fire Fighters Battalion really whipped the enemy in Iraq. It's strictly not true that privatizing these would risk losing a monopoly on force.
It's not anarchy to pay the fire department to put out your fire. It's libertarianism. Just like paying your doctor to splint your leg.
Even if I agreed with you, whether it risks losing the monopoly on force or not doesn't make it any less a socialized service.
Privatizing these would mean anarchism as there's no longer a monopoly on force.
