Depravity Under Anarchy

Problem	Under Anarchy	Under "Government"	Reality
Theft	Given freedom (the absence of government), the depraved man will steal your money. Definitions: An-archy: A society without archists, made up of people who believe it is wrong to initiate force or threaten violence against others. Archism: An "archist" is someone who believes he has the right to impose his will on other people by force or threats of violence. Depravity: the selfish desire to be an archist.	Given government power, that same depraved man will only tax you "responsibly," taking only what is needed for "the public good," or "the general welfare." Lord Acton: Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men, even when they exercise influence and not authority; still more when you superadd the tendency or the certainty of corruption by authority. There is no worse heresy than that the office sanctifies the holder of it.	In 1994 “criminals” committed 7,885 bank robberies, taking $28 million. That same year, “government agencies” seized $2.1 Billion in “asset forfeiture proceedings,” often without “probable cause,” and often not returned even when innocence was proven. Taxation steals hundreds of billions of dollars a year. Fiat money is a form of theft. Trillions of dollars a year. As long as men are depraved, there will be more theft when depraved men are given the power of "the State." There will be less theft under "anarchy," as long as parents have the right to homeschool their children and teach them "the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God."
Adultery	Given freedom, the depraved man will lust after your wife.	Given a job with TSA, that same depraved man will behave as a gentleman, professionally evaluating your wife under her clothes through a sophisticated X-ray machine, and ensuring public safety by groping her private parts to vindicate her honor as a non-terrorist.	As long as men are depraved, they should not be given power over women through government agencies.
Murder	Given freedom, a depraved man will kill other human beings.	Given government power, a depraved man would never, ever send a drone against anyone to assassinate them without due process, bomb a nation of human beings "back to the stone age" because their "leader" would not "cooperate" with a United Nations Resolution, lie on the witness stand to get a conviction for the death penalty	World Governments have murdered an average of 10,000 human beings every single day of the year for the last 100 years without just cause. So-called "anarchists" (that is, archists operating without government approval) only succeed in killing about that many people every year. These figures do not include abortion, which are a coordinated public/private enterprise, approved -- and often funded -- by government. Governments tell us all that mothers have a "fundamental right" to murder their babies. Today -- during the next 24 hours -- 115,000 babies will be murdered around the world. "Governments" have killed around 200 million of their "own" post-unaborted citizens. Wars against the post-unaborted citizens of other nations have killed an equal or greater number. That's half a BILLION murders in the last century, committed by governments. As many as 90 million people were murdered in World War II, which ensured that Poland could be given to Stalin, and China could be given to Mao. 76 million human beings were murdered under Mao. Could Japan have been worse for the Chinese? Could the complete absence of organized governments have been worse for the world in the 20th century?
Kidnapping	Given the freedom of anarchy, a depraved man will enslave another human being.	Given government power, that same depraved man would never, ever conscript millions of the poor for his wars imprison a million pathetic, non-violent dope-smoking losers. force the relocation of thousands of Cherokee indians from Georgia to Oklahoma. institute fascism, communism or state socialism over billions of human beings	Government archists -- not so-called "anarchists" -- are responsible for the greatest deprivation of human liberty.
	"If men were angels," James Madison once said, we need not have a government.	If men are depraved, we dare not have one.	Because we've been trained to fear "anarchy," we give massive lethal power to "archists," who ban the Ten Commandments from government-run schools, and engage in more sin, wickedness, violence, death, and destruction than a Free Market would ever allow unorganized "anarchists" to commit.
