Personal view on Noam Chomsky
Noam Chomsky could best be described as an anarcho-capitalist. When asked for his views on capitalism, Chomsky replied quoting a famous line by Ghandi when asked about his views on western civilisation, "it would be a good idea". Chomsky goes on to explain that capitalism per-se does not exist in this world, and explains his idea of capitalism which is closer to anarcho-capitalism.

To characterize chomsky as an anarcho capitalist seems to contradict some of his own thoughts on the matter. He refers to anarcho-capitalism as
...a doctrinal system which, if ever implemented, would lead to forms of tyranny and oppression that have few counterparts in human history...I also admire their commitment to rationality -- which is rare -- though I do not think they see the consequences of the doctrines they espouse, or their profound moral failings.
