So if someone broke into your home and stole your computer, you would not go to the police (the government's strongmen in your view), but go try and take it back yourself. If you were not strong enough to take it back, you don't deserve it? Then go buy another for someone else to take? In a way that might work, as when everyone who wants to take your computer has done so, the next one should be safe.

Unlike many: i do not rely upon someone else to look after my things.

Perhaps you would like to take things from me. I'll go call up some of the people from high school and college. You should talk to them about how that ended up Heart

Quote:I never really understood the position of an anarchist any more than Christianity. The system posited by Karl Marx should theoretically end in anarchy, but of course won't. While many, maybe most people are generally good-natured, it only takes one strong one to make a government. At the very instant someone exercises power over someone else (even if only by strength of arms or skill), anarchy becomes government. Thus, anarchy cannot truly be said to exist, any more than any other religion that people aspire to but cannot achieve.

Unlike "anarchistic" people that present such as a government... my anarchy is solely personal. While other people usually follow their own 'rules': I don't even have these rules to follow. Even my morality bends entirely to suit the circumstances as I see fit Smile

Anarchy exists when either there are no rules or the rules presented are not followed. Anarchy is an enemy to law only in not following law.

Quote:And the strong taking from the weak is government, not anarchy. Government of the strong.

Anarchy is government: the 'lucky' will always rule. Government cannot be escaped. Even when one is the government: how can they escape themselves?
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
