Why do we need big government to prevent us from stealing or killing each other? Maybe the whole society should self regulate?

- chroma 7y agoThis is a straw man. A government can try to stop theft and violent crime without building regulatory moats around incumbent companies. Though in many places governments aren't great at preventing theft and violence. That's why even in developed countries, many companies hire private security, citizens learn self-defense, and some people carry pepper spray, knives, or even firearms.
