Chase Oliver was on my ballot today. At one time I might have voted for him but not today. I voted for the last guy listed. In other words the place holder for NONE OF THE ABOVE. As far as I can figure voluteerism and libertarian systems are seductive on first look but eventually will turn into what we have now. For example what if tomorrow all government disappears? The day after tommorow the people that did what that government office did will start a private business doing the same thing. Sooner or later that business will be bought out by another business doing the same line of business. A couple iterations later the company that does that service or product will a be monopoly so either buy from them or live without. There will be no recourse for poor service or fraud. Put up or shutup. Then you may say we can take the Monopoly to an arbitration board staffed with pensioners from said Monopoly. Expecting justice from arbitration boards is wishful thinking. The only people who would want this volunteerism are people that already own 99% of everything.
