Apparently in your idea, if someone were forced to live in a society with no law, order, or organization they should just peacefully let themselves be parted with all they have by anyone who cares to take it.
- salt-thrower 5y agoIf all you're really saying is "without government there would be vigilante justice instead" then you're correct, but it's quite a non-sequitur in relation to the rest of the discussion in this thread.
- quantumBerry 5y agoAll I'm saying is without government or any organization you are left with taking care of things yourself, rather than policeman with guns maybe taking care of the problem for you. Let's say the government doesn't care at all about their loss (pretty common for fraud crimes in the US, I myself have been a victim of credit card fraud and no one cared even my bank who charged me anyway after I proved it was fraudulent) they actually do manage to get their property back from the person who stole it without government intervention, but they did it through direct rather than governmental action. Who cares, and what are you going to do about it? Sit back in your chair and type about the injustice of a man taking his property back without begging a policeman on his knees to consider giving the slightest care? It's nice that your moral outrage will be present but the pragmatism remains.
