The LVT don't real. People will work as much or as little as they can please depending on how much they value their leisure time and how much they value their paycheck. There will be NEETs living with their parents who work ten hours a week and live off stale bulk ramen. There will be workaholics working 60 hours a week because they love what they do.

There is no way of knowing for certain, and it depends largely on the level of economic development, but if we presume an economy roughly as developed as the modern United States and eliminate the state, we can start to get some idea.

Get rid of the personal income tax, and that's already a sizable chunk of cash back in the average worker's pocket. Removing corporate income tax also increases the amount of revenue the company has available to offer its employees, driving wages up. Getting rid of regulatory burdens should have the same effect, as well as reducing the cost of goods by increasing competition from other firms. Removing tariffs further lowers prices both directly and indirectly.

So counting personal and corporate income tax, property tax, sales tax, tariffs, and taxes on particular goods, lets assume conservatively that the average American pays about 40% of their income in taxes. I've seen it claimed the government on average tends to waste 80% of tax revenue on overpaying for goods and maintaining a bloated bureaucracy. Lets be conservative again and call it 50%, since the public-private partnership model (the state is still involved, just less so) provides the services the government used to at half the cost. Regulatory burdens make up 30% of the national income (2018), and while that disproportionately affects the poor, lets just be conservative again and stick to that 30%.

So speaking extremely conservatively, you are no longer paying 40% of your income in taxes and 30% of your income in regulatory burdens, and paying roughly 20% of your income for private municipal services.

Your original income was 100% - 40% - 30% = 30% for living expenses and other uses.

Your stateless income is 100% - 20% = 80% for living expenses and other uses.

So your net pay has changed from 30% to 80%, which is 8/3, or 233% of what it was.

So if you figure that the average worker had to work 40 hours to stay afloat before, a worker being paid at the same rate would be able to afford the same lifestyle on 3/8 or 37.5% as much labor, working out to 15 hours a week.

That's not taking into account the benefits of deflation on those workers' savings and retirement accounts.

It's all napkin math, but I tried to keep my figures conservative to counteract that. It's an interesting exercise.

So there would be more price competition and their capital investment would shift away from industries that are less efficient for them, enhancing the effects of their comparative advantage. Some of that is accounted for in the broad category of "regulatory burden", but there is no way to quantify the extent of the benefit, which is why I mentioned the rapid economic development that would have to result from such a scenario.

Competition in the marketplace is a good thing, even for the competitors. Even if nominal wages go down, the increased economic activity means that the supply of goods and services is increasing. Since we're not projecting a sudden population explosion (industrialization tends to cause population growth to level off), that means the general demand for those goods and services isn't increasing at the same rate. When supply increases relative to demand, there's more stuff to go around. Everyone's purchasing power improves.

I didn't even touch the impact of capital investment on labor requirements. One could write entire books on each facet of this scenario.

The punchline is that this lack of so-called "protection" is a good thing, and only reinforces the point.

>how many hours a day would average person need to work in order to make a living in free society (ancap)?

Zero. Because it's not work if you enjoy doing it and happen to get money in the process.

Realistically about 10-20 hours a week would probably be enough to cover all basic necessities, 30 hours to have basic luxuries, and then there wouldn't be a significant increase in one's wealth until you hit the 60+ hour mark since that would be the kind of work CEOs and non-automatizable job roles would probably be required to put in by their employer, though those sorts of jobs would likely see rotating shifts to keeps workers at top productivity and to allow them time to spend their hard-earned cash, such as having a week off every other week or something similar. The average employer would likely require about 16-28 hours/week from their employees though, even if the employee only needed to work 10 hours to survive.
