Just so we are clear. You think a national currency and a roads system that are both handled by private companies would be better?

Would the government contract these things out or would multiple companies just create a national currency and the market would decide which one we used?

I agree that the government fucks most things up. In almost every case when the government handles things they end up bloated, corrupt and often broken down, but there are some things that likely need to be handled on that level for the sake of stability.
