Do you think society would operate better with no governments at all? If so then how?

I think there should be less government. Less or no red tape. It should be strictly for serving the people which isn't the case at all (it serves special interest).

Government should put more into logistics. Our interstate system. Instead, when there are problems, a patch up job is done until is complete fails and then its done when it absolutely has to.

If there was less it would likely run more efficient.

And you are supporting Biden, who is the opposite of that, because you read a book by Michael Cohen that said Trump was mean.



You are just one big walking contradiction, aren’t you?

Agreed. Super-surprised Interstate system wasn’t brought up during last night’s debate. Clearly the #1 issue for most Americans

I'd take your wheelchair and beat you with it, the people would cheer me and crown me King.

I'd then have relations with many morally questionable young ladies.

Depends on where you live. Urban, post-industrial societies require a massive centralized state because of population densities and an increased likelihood of negative encounters with others. Rural, agricultural areas that are self-sufficient would likely have less issues adjusting to no government.

Hank Williams Jr. had a rather pertinent philosophical thesis on this very subject.

I have never liked Trump. The Cohen book just confirms that Trump is the person I thought he was. Just because I knew of his business dealings before he ever ran for president.

And I really don't think party matters as much as people think. A lot of politicians are whatever party they have to be to get elected. There is a party platform then there is reality. But I do believe Biden is the less of two evils.

I dunno about King, maybe a Duke or Lord. Cripple in a wheelchair and not enough sense to get in out of the rain ain't much of an accomplishment.

His platform is LITERALLY the opposite of what you posted in the OP.



Your stance is an emotional issue, not logical or rational.

Had you stated differently, that wouldn’t be the case, but you didn’t.

You support less government, but will choose more government because “Trump is a bad guy”.

You have essentially stated they you are disregarding your views because you don’t like Trump’s personality.

Scruffy finds that pretty hilarious.

As people approach and underestimate me, I will take them out or enslave them until I build a fricking empire.

He’s just being emotional like most Dems. That can’t actually articulate their views

Check out the tribal warfare in the Middle East. That's all you need to know.

Survival of the fittest. Tons of predators among the population. Doubtful you and your husband would survive more than 2 weeks.
