You said "But true freedom is had without government at all since any government will hold power and law at some degree against complete freedom."

Without a system of governance, you cannot settle such disputes in any kind of fair or organized manner. That's why they made governments in the first place.



...you mean like a legal system? You're still calling for a government, but you're just pretending to call it something else.
Settling disputes in a fair and organized manner? That's not freedom. There's a difference between freedom and priviledges/benefits.

I wasn't calling for anything...just stating the difference so that the term "freedom" isn't misconstrued with government granted priviledges and rights. I never once said my preference. With that said, government can be used to secure some freedoms, and to grant rights and priviledges, in order to create an ideal system.
