Serious question:
For things like alcoholism, kleptomania or pedophilia, stuff that today people "get help" because they're "sick". Have we ever measured the cure rate of the "help" over "institutionalizing them"?

Recent China RISC-V summit showed the rapidly advancing domestic RISC-V ecosystem, driven by an imperative for technological independence.News Desk (EE Times)
I can't see the future, but it seems pretty clear that China is going to wipe the floor with the US in the next decade technologically, and 75% of that is just us doing it to ourselves driven by idiots, racists, arrogant techbros, protectionists, and simplistic nationalism.
No idea how Europe is going to do, but...
@trabex I assume so. Like the British, we'll probably continue to delude ourselves for another 50 years or so.

I have an idea I would like to call a Freedom Test. The idea of this test is to determine if you really value freedom or if you value something else. Many people will claim they are about freedom, but often they either are conflating freedom with another value that is not actually freedom.
One example of the misuse of this term is by those who call for "free healthcare." Whether or not you value this, it is not freedom, but a provision.
The Freedom Test is helpful in determining who is for freedom and who is for "freedom."
The test is this: if we remove government entities from the equation, are you able to get what you want? The answer should be quite clear if you think about this.
For those who want their freedom to have firearms, the government being out of the way would not change your ability to have firearms. But if your "freedom" is paid for by the government ("free" healtchare), then you do not have true freedom.
Not everyone is going to be all about genuine freedom. And that is not necessarily a bad thing. But people should not be so quick to proclaim that they are about freedom if they require others to be forced into some action in order to attain their "freedom."
I would not consider myself anarcho-capitalist, but they at least are those that would be genuinely about freedom. But considering we have yet to have an ancap example in the world, that might show that 100% freedom might not be possible.
We can apply this test in multiple facets too. For example, gay marriage.
Whether you like it or not, if there are no restrictions to marriage, then gay marriage would be possible under the value of freedom.
The problems start coming in when the state is involved, such as lawsuits for gay wedding cakes or forcing others to acknowledge their marriage as valid. Many gays fail the freedom test the moment they are confronted with the fact that others do not want to participate.

In anarcho capitalism you can buy a marriage contract and the marriage contract would be enforced by a privatised rights enforcement agency
If there is a dispute between multiple rights enforcement agencies then it can be settled by arbitration
All without government

State sponsored firearm ownership just like state sponsored healthcare
The government gives you a free firearm if you are below a certain income level
If you make too much money then you have to buy a firearm but you can opt out and pay a fee for not purchasing a firearm instead
