- M2Ys4U 4y agoWe've also learned from our history, and created institutions like the ECHR to enforce a minimum standard of human rights against the state, and list more things than "Speech and guns good" like the US.

The idea is that there's a value in having an enterprise(the government) with centralised record keeping because they own that government and have the power to change managers on predefined reviews(elections) and they have a history of forcefully changing managers who try to stick around despite not being wanted. What do you do when a private enterprise misbehaves? Mind you, the governmental duties are often monopolistic by nature. What do you do then? Sniper the CEO? It's much more socially acceptable to riot against the government and burn government building than assaulting company HQ.
