They most certainly are?

Maybe you are thinking of anarcho-capitalism which is not a serious ideology

Isn't anarcho capitalism just extremely radical liberalism? In which case people do take it very seriously. I know someone who is flying to some island in the pacific soon to get away from taxes and the government.

Sorta, its the belief that capitalism can (and should) exist without the state, which is what makes me call it an unserious ideology. Seeing as the state arises from class contradiction and capitalism cannot exist without class. There are people who seriously believe this but that doesn't make it coherent.

That makes sense, thanks for explaining (:
