Re: Is No Government Possible? -

I recently learned in political science that the Articles of Confederation established a weak national government. Essentially, there wasn't much of a government. There was no national army, so the government couldn't tell the states to pay taxes. Originally, the US wanted to establish a weak national government because they didn't want to follow the footsteps of the king of England. But when they established a weak national government, states had problems with each other. When I'm asking if it's possible to NOT have a government, I'm not just asking if there would still be crimes and such, I'm asking...in general, would the US would be able to sustain a large population without a government? I'm not only asking if it was possible in the beginning, but I'm also asking in modern times. If government disappeared, what do you think would happen? Would we start back over again except somehow not having a government, or do you think that we would be like "man, not having a government is great...WHAT?! YOU WANT ME TO BUY AN APPLE FOR SEX?! Fuck this, I'm establishing a government!"
