I spent 20 minutes writing a post, but fuck it.
It's too easy to start a shitstorm here. You can't have a society where nobody rules, it would be chaos. Anybody that has argued for anarchy here has to admit that someone (or group, AHEM democracy) has to rule over a dispute. You can't kill somebody because they called you a faggot, and somebody has to enforce that.
America has fucked up democracy quite a bit with corruption, but it can't last forever; there will be a tipping point if things continue to get worse. But when it tips we'll just see a revised form of government (with actual accountability), not anarchy.
If you care about it that much, go buy a cheap ass private island and live there by yourself, that's as close as you'll ever get.
How often do you not kill somebody for the sole reason you may get in trouble from the government?
Would you rather have competing security firms protecting you, or a monopoly on security dictated by the guy with a kill list on his desk who's dropped bombs on innocent American kids from UAV's?
The U.S. killed between (some estimates) 600k and 1 mil+ Iraqis during our invasion/occupation. That's a million dead people who hadn't done shit to us before we started bombing them.
Is that okay? Who's going to enforce that. Ah, the government's got it covered, it's cool.
They can murder at will, they can wipe their ass with the constitution - Wachovia bank got caught laundering $328 BILLION dollars to Mexican drug cartels. When they got caught, the guys they were working with had 7.5 tons of coke on them.
That's billion with a B. Why are we letting that insane war go on down there, with thousands of innocent people dying when we could stop it in a day and devalue cocaine. Because expensive coke is more profitable when you're in a position of power.. Bank of America, Western Union, Wells Fargo and a shit ton of others have been caught being involved.
The year after the bust, the recession hit, they all got billions of dollars in bailout money - They're making CRAZY money laundering drug money, and the government turns around and gives them BILLIONS of dollars in tax payer money.
If I get caught with a gram of coke or $100 in money earned from selling coke I'd go to prison for a LOOOONG time. There's big money in the prison biz too.
They get busted, here's billions in tax payer money, have fun. You just have to follow the lobbyist money a little further to see who really makes the laws in this country.
Beyond that Government, all forms, is evil by design. It's forced control. It's the right to initiate force and steal from people. And then use our (stolen)tax money on things like fighting the drug war, keeping drug offenders locked away for years and bombing innocent civilians in countries who've never harmed and aren't a threat to us.
I'll take my chances with being able to walk down the street and not kill a guy. If I fuck up the Government's still up on me by millions of people.
You know why all of these wars are going on, the drug war, the war on terrorism, wars on fucking phrases that accomplish nothing but the death of innocents and hatred all around the world?
Because fucktards in positions of power take bribes from rich fucktards who stand to profit off of the death millions of people and that's cool... But if some guy calls me a fag call the cops.
On top of that, you experience anarchy every day. I just got back from eating, saw some friends, not one cop or government official stopped me. Total anarchy. It was crazy. I'm surprised I didn't get killed.
Yeah, Government is evil. It's not necessary. It's forced control, unimaginably violent and wrong on every level.
