I guess anarchy can work of "good guys" are ambitious enough to ensure they control the neighborhoods, but the reality is that most good guys just want to be left alone in peace, live their normal honest lives, raise a family, ect...
But the bad guys are power hungry, don't want to live an honest life, and would rather gain control of others, and do things that are bad for society to benefit themselves. Like drug dealers.
They do it for money, and power.
So anarchy can work, but only if good guys keep the peace.
Kind of like how Wild West settlements that were ran properly ended up being granted statehood, but it really isn't anarchy at that point at all.
Anarchy doesn't work because bad guys always seize control. And that's really why all governments fail as well... Because no matter how well intentioned a power structure may begin, the upper ranks always end up being filled with power hungry evil.
That goes for ALL power. Companies, organizations, governments, ect.
Look at the boy scouts or catholic church. Do you think it started out with a bunch of men in power abusing children?
Or CPS?
Hell no! They started off as great things, but over time, became corrupted.
And that's where war comes from. Because the majority can only be slaves for so long until they would rather die to liberate themselves than to live under oppression.
And it feels like that's where the humans race is going today. A choice between slavery and liberation.
It's also not that simple either though, because not everything goes well for many decades.
Let's say a civil war broke out in America. It could lead to mass suffering for centuries. Or it could last a few years.
Or it could lead to our country being invaded by foreign enemies.
Point is, all power structures eventually fail. All of them.
America is hitting the age in which is "average" for a system of government to fail, and have a re birth as something else.
But I fear its a bad change, not a good one.
Globalism VS independence will be the major issue of our day, and I'm very thankful multiple states seem to be seizing their power and independence back from an abusive federal government.
Independence is really the best way to be with any form of government, because it usually means the people get to do what works for them, not the entire collective which focuses on the majority as a whole, and ignored the needs of the minority.
The minority in this case is becoming the average Joe middle class, which is super fucked up!
The middle class gets fucked the most, the poor get hand outs and a pass, and the rich ALWAYS get off everywhere worldwide.
I don't hate the rich, or the poor, but it's the middle class that should be given the greatest representation and incentive to continue our grind.
Because it is us who makes any country great. The strongest countries are the ones that have the largest per capita middle class.
Because we work. And workers are needed for obvious reasons.
We do need the rich too, because we need intelligent, hard working entrepreneurs to advance our world.
