Anarchist Opinion: Government and Evil

Anarchist Opinion: Government and Evil

It might surprise you. If you have been reading my blog, then you know I am an anarchist. That is what the symbol on the page means. The circle with the “A” through it, but I changed it. Mine also has a peace symbol and a dollar sign symbol, and a yin yang symbol for balance. The “A” stands for anarchy, but it is offset by the peace symbol and the dollar sign symbol. The dollar sign symbol represents trade. I know very well that trade must exists in order for people to get their resources so that they can live. Though the dollar sign and government are now related, this is not necessary. Gold silver, and other monies need no government regulation, and many of these are still available as coins, such as silver dollars, which used to be silver.

There is the peace symbol within the symbol of anarchy on my page, which indicates that anarchy is not beneficial unless it is accompanied by peace. Okay, so that hasn’t happened yet. The world has experienced periods of peace, but not without government. This is one reason I do not feel government is necessarily evil. However, government is regulation, and for that it must be regulated itself.

This is one reason I blog about what the government should do, as now it supports due process. It is a balance called a republic. The government tells us what to do, and we tell the government what to do. That is the yin yang of the republic. It is the yin yang any anarchist must have. There must be a balance in regulation. It cannot be one sided.

Due process is not necessarily evil, but in our country it protects the rich. The police are essentially a militia that is designed to protect the rich. This due process of a republic is one reason I feel justice and wealth redistribution has stagnated in the USA. Anarchists or the democratic republic of a mob would not tolerate it. Anarchy is anything but the stagnation of justice. It is also not without justice. Freud and Judaism say that we have both evil and good inclinations, and if a state of anarchy was allowed to stabilize, then I believe people actually would behave in it.

As long as the government promotes stagnation of wealth redistribution, I am an anarchist. Anarchists don’t support government, so it is impossible for them to develop a government that will overthrow any government, and thus start a new one. In this way, I still work and blog to try to improve this human condition, but it is my opinion that the human condition won’t improve until the USA goes through a period of anarchy.
