If my neighbors start up a meth lab in their > house then any means needed to make them stop is fine with me. Really? What if your neighbors suspect you've started a meth lab? Did you ever take a moment to think of it like that? How would violent dynamic entry by the government's police force while you were eating dinner go over with you? Better yet, let's say it was your neighbor that was suspected and the cops messed up on the address and came bursting into your home? >>>> I state it that way, but >>>>off hand I can't think of what we really need a government, an entity >>>>that has one tool, the use of legal violence against us to rule us, for. >>> So then I should be free to kill you and take all of your property. >>No. > Why not? Are you going to coerce me to not kill you? I take it you don't understand the meaning of words. That might be your issue. Anyway. You've already accepted that you can have the government act as your agent and take some or all my property under the threat of killing me. It would be nice if people like yourself suddenly got the balls to do it yourselves instead of using the mechanisms of government to do it. My guess is that you and those like you are too cowardly to use violence face to face, that's why you have the state do it for you. You're too affraid your intended victims would fight back and hurt you. >> Your rights end at your nose as the saying goes. > "Rights"?!? Since when do you care about rights? You're the one that doesn't care for rights. > What about the right to be paid for your work? You clearly feel that you can enslave others to pay for the "services" you want. You just have the government take their property, their money, the fruits of their labor, to provide you with "services". >>> You don't think that money is of any use.

Like many other things government and those attached to them took a monopoly over money in order to steal. >> There are >>many forms of dispute resolution and there is no need for a government >>monopoly on courts. > And, in fact, there is no such monopoly.
