European countries, for example, choose public provision of daycare
services, while in the United States these services are almost always

A judicial system could be provided privately, with the judges levying
charges to plaintiffs and defendants in order to hear their cases. But most

the government to provide the judicial system, financed by money raised
through general taxation.
