And if you like Government, I recommend you move to North Korea.
How do you propose that a country be free from the initiation of violence?
You can have financial incentives by the free market, DRO, etc. But the best chance of a peaceful country developing is improving the treatment of children.
All evidence points to the child's relationship with parents as the biggest predictor of adult behaviour. There's countless studies showing adverse childhoods contribute to dysfunctional behaviour in adult life. I think in many ways, politics and religion merely reflect the childhood of society.
The parallels are undeniable. An abusive parent would say "It's not okay for you to hit other children as a 6 year old, but we can rightfully hit you as adults" come 20 years for that child and when the government says "You can't take peoples money or hit other citizens, but it's okay for us to bomb people and throw millions in cages" it makes sense.
The only freedom, is freedom from illusion.
