"If you think you can force people to do things that their conscience disagrees with; you are for tyranny."

There is little (no?) room in your simplistic formulation for a social compact. Is there room for anything but anarchy? If a majority of citizens vote for speed limits but you, in good conscience, disagree, is there room in your system for the majority to compel you to pay a fine?

Speed limits and medical mandates that impact a person's one and only body are two very different things. You are being duplicitous.

Why do we need speed limits? If none existed would you take a curve at 120? Or maybe you think others would because they're not as smart as you.
When a power outage causes the traffic light at a busy intersection to go out and the cops haven't arrived why don't cars go crashing into each other?
Anarchy =/= chaos.
