[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 4592131, member: 63706"] Anarchy can't last very long, precisely because we are individuals who lack the capacity to integrate enough with those around us for collectivism to ever be what you want it to be. Without centralized decision making (leadership) a collective will be unable to organize, chaos ensues, and a despot steps up and fills the power vacuum. You go almost immediately from anarchy to totalitarianism. You might as well be saying you want unicorns and pots of gold at the end of the rainbow for everyone. You are buying a bogus bill of goods, being sold to you by a bunch of people you trust, who know better, and are taking advantage of your naivete. The fact that you say people like Milton Friedman are frauds or idiots makes it clear that someone has warped your view of reality. [/QUOTE]
