Ever find yourself in a situation where some bully is demanding to see a “permit” because you are doing something you have a right to do, but which some “authority” has decided to control?
Well, worry no more. You now have a permit:

Yes, Ron Swanson’s permit is simpler, but as you know, some people want to do things they have no right to do. This avoids that issue.

Contrary to popular opinion, I believe the state has the obligation to require permits and fees from people using their lands and resources.
Yes, the very idea of a state is anathema to liberty, but the reality is one exists and is charged to maintain certain resources (like muh roads) and this maintenance, which also includes insurance, has a cost.

Government owns nothing. Everything government claims was either stolen from the rightful owner or bought with stolen or counterfeited money. A thief doesn't own what it possesses.
If I can opt out of paying for government “services” that I'd rather not pay for, then I won't object. I am forced to pay road “taxes” when I buy fuel, and I'm not allowed to opt out.
If a private owner allowed highwaymen to infest his roads and rob travelers, I would shun his services. If poor maintenance allowed my vehicle to be damaged, or me to be injured, I should be able to recover damages from the road owner.
When I am forced to pay for something, I expect accountability.
Our descendants will be amazed we settled for “government” roads.
