The title is self-explanatory. I need arguments/criticisms of "Anarcho-Capitalism".

EDIT: Anarcho-Capitalism's being an oxymoron is fairly clear. What I need are failures in its functions.

Well, I'm not the greatest at the subject, but I think a place to start is to say that private property within capitalist society, and class society in general, requires a state apparatus to enforce the "right" to property in the first place.

Because capital itself is a coercive and oppressive power structure, there is really nothing "anarcho" about anarcho-capitalism.

Anarchism == freedom
Capitalism == heirarchical control of productive means
The two are incompatible because you limit your freedom in a large number of ways even more so than in a dictatorship.
