I do not believe in government. I feel like us as human beings should be able to govern our own life. For a long while I was an anarchist believing in a free world with no leader or higher power above us but ourselves, until I thought of the question of "once we were a totally free government, how would the citizens react to such great freedom?" It puzzled me for the longest until I realized, human beings are monsters of there of there own design, we would not be able to handle the temptation of leaving an open spot on the mantle for a king. Human nature would not be able to resist. The same problem with communism, totally equal throughout the people with no problem, but the nature of humans has completely savaged over the option to have a totally free life.
Even the thought of total freedom is to much for our brains to comprehend at one time. No government to tell you anything, how to live or how not to live, the world would be our own for once. The world and it's freedom always seems taken by our fellow peers, our fellow man, savages and dogs when it comes to one ounce of true freedom, just like kids once the teacher leaves the classroom, unjust and unfair, they all take advantage of the freedom of the moment at the same time and then it is no longer anarchy, then it is chaos.
The governments purpose is to protect our natural rights: life, liberty and property. And without laws and guidelines humans would undoubtedly take full advantage of freedom, unquestionably total chaos.
The thought of a free society is utopian, but uptopia is nonexistent by the laws of nature. If an anarchist civilization was put into place, you would have no one to trust, we would be animals and we would go back in time in a scientific and civilized matter.
You would be looking over your shoulder constantly in fear that something would happen. Once again the nature of society challenges the perfection of such a blueprint. Humans are greedy and jealous. When you give such a breed the ability to legally rule over the other it will constantly struggle for more power.
John Dalberg-Acton, 1st Baron Acton could not have said it better when he said, "absolute power corrupts absolutely".
