RE: Enabling the Conscious Shift...

in #partiko6 years ago

I feel the same way as you in regards to government. I guess what I’m saying is for now the best alternative if we were to continue to become a more awakened society is the “Libertarian” viewpoint. It would be the best transition if government had to exist. I don’t see a day soon in which no government exists without chaos first ensuing. The libertarian viewpoints allow people to govern themselves with as little oversight or rules as possible. However it still is a government that would apply the base needs without interference.

However I’m with you. I would like to see a day without government. I just think we need to transition to that point rather than have a cold stop. Not everyone is ready for a world without government yet. I hope one day we do get there.

I agree that a day without government would not happen over night. There are going to be essential functions and services and social safety nets provided that could not or should not go away. Those are the things that I think would cause the chaos that you mentioned.

I would advocate for moving those essential services and functions to a true free market, privatized model. There are already cities doing pretty much what I would advocate for at least transitioning into which would be privatization of services normally provided by an incompetent, expensive, monopolistic state. I would like to see more cities start doing this, showing people the uselessness of government.

I hope as well that we can get there some day, but I am not holding my breath. We have a lot of work to do as probably already know :)
