A: Which one of those were made by the government?
B: They are all made by tax payers money
A: So the citizens built them then. At most all your saying is we need a treasurer, what do we need congress for.
B: Well what if a foreign country invades, and who are going to call about the robber.
A: You mean what if a foreign Government invades, I just said I wish we didn't have governments, and if someone is robbing me I'm going to kick his ass if I can. If he robbed me when I wasn't home then the police won't find him anyway, just fill out paper work.
B: Well what if your shot, then who are you going to call.
A: The ambulance which charges you an arm and a leg and is not payed for by taxes.
B: Well who is going to make sure we don't all starve.
A: Community ran efforts like the food bank, and besides the government sucks at running a budget and feeding people.
B: Well who is going to deal with criminals?
A: How about a jury of his peers?
B: That's mob rule
A: Your right and thats a form of democracy. Well criminals would be dealt with differently in each community.
B: See so we need government.
A: no that's more like we need team work within the local area, we still don't need anyone in Washington DC.
B: Who would maintain the roads?
A: Construction workers.
B: Their not going to do it for free.
A: if the local community wants roads then they will find a way to have roads. Without any need for congress men, presidents, or supreme courts.
B: It would be anarchy!
A: It would be freedom!
B: The criminals would take over everything.
A: maybe in some areas in other areas the fathers and brothers of the town would stop them as would the local religious congregations.
B: Then the church would become government.
A: If that happened I wouldn't want that government either, but each of us should have freedom from being ruled by state, church or corporation.
B: Your dumb and your lucky to live in the land of the free so you should be arrested for talking like that.
A: *smacks forehead.
Personally, I don't see myself entirely on side A or side B.
ReplyDeleteI do think that Government is harmful in certain ways. <-As in, a lot of their laws take out the basic decision in life. They are planning on passing a law that would make Iridescent Light Bulbs illegal(because they aren't efficient enough)... If one wants to spend extra money on electricity to use Iridescent, then let them!
Hmm... I thought up a nice 'Pro-Government' paragraph, then shot it down before I even finished it. I do still think that the Government is beneficial in some ways though.
I dont know why I only just now saw your comment on here. Im not sure if I see myself on side A or B either but probably leaning toward A.
DeleteLooks like when I wrote this I ws definitaly A. Also looks like I need to fix the missing image.
Hmm maybe I saw the comment along time ago but didnt get around to responding at the time.
