No, this rule applies equally to everyone. If unsecured cargo flies out of the back of your minivan, you're liable for anyone it hits.

That's different. You're not liable for random objects kicked up from the road, but you are liable for objects that fall from your vehicle.

Your premise is wrong. Economists don't believe only governments can create monopolies, or that having no government is a good idea.
One of the most important functions of government is to maintain the rule of law and prevent the exact kind of violence you're describing.
In parts of the world where the government in unable or unwilling to maintain order (say, Somalia), the economy tends to be dominated by organized crime and local warlords.

Now just use Meshy to turn it into an STL and print it.

Because of their stochastic nature, it's easy to find specific examples where they fail at simple problems - even though they can other times solve much more difficult problems. There's no real good rule for what they can and can't solve.

Consumers would pay higher prices because small businesses typically have higher margins. There's extra efficiency from operating at scale.
Costco and Walmart margins are in the range 2-3%, while mom and pop shops need more like 10% to be worth the owner's time.
Read my comment again. Kicked up from the road vs falling from vehicle are very different.
