I think we both have an understanding that a person should not be left without essential services or be punished without some kind of due process.
If so, the government centric line of argument does not get you anywhere, because there are many essential services are not government owned or controlled monopolies..
My electric, water, internet and mobile suppliers are private Same goes for the bank. There are only a handful of companies in each category in the country, and they could wake up tomorrow and remove me from their network.
You can either have personal liberty, or oligopolies with contracts 'we can remove you at any time for any reason'. Not both.
