The issue, Grandpa, is not if we "should" continue in those modes of behavior. The issue is if we "will". If humans, finding themselves in unregulated circumstances, always revert to some form of regulation, is it not best to attempt to foster the form of regulation that is best able to achieve some sort of ballance between the collective good and individual rights?

Rights in this country are well defined, but the "collective good" argument is losing it's appeal because of all the things people want to lump into the collective good. ( So a big NO on that one. )

Anarchy does not hold in the long run. It can not be "fostered", by it's very definition. It can not be imposed. It can not be enforced, so it fails.

Heh, now that was well said.


You have managed to clearly illustrate why that system can not work in four short sentences.
