Do they really though? This is the question.
Is there no other way to live peacefully and be good to one another without an overarching busy-bodied state apparatus causing perpetual fear even among the innocent?
- jascii 7y agoDo you have any suggestions for this "other way"? I consider myself an anarchist in the sense that I believe that we should strive not to need government, taking responsibility for our own actions. I do not currently believe we as a society have found a way to make that a reality :(
- robertfw 7y agoImplementing proper UBI and reducing poverty would cause a similar reduction in crime. It's not the end-all solution, but as societies build more safety nets, shift towards rehabilititive instead of punitive justice, and generally increase the "collective" wealth, crime will continue to fall.
