RE: A Matter of Scale

in #anarchy7 years ago

Wow @larkenrose, this is some good talk, good analogy too, but I can't agree completely you know, a thing as simple as a camping can be organized easily without a ruler or government, but when it comes to a complicated arrangement like a big state things end up more complex. A lot of organization and probably some authority is required to keep things straight.

I hate government, but I believe it is a somewhat necessary evil. We need government but I'll say a different type of government that we have now, which is a less centralized, a more democratic, and a more honest government. These are what we need. It might seem difficult or impossible to achieve but we really have to strive towards this.

Go to the nearest supermarket. See how complex it all is, the level of organization and cooperation involved. Then see how many people are FORCED to do any of that. (Hint: none of them.) Giving some people the RIGHT TO RULE is not only completely unnecessary to complex organization and cooperation; it is also immoral and drastically destructive.
