In the current society that we live in, the United States has been teetering on this verge of Government corruption, and with this corruption comes the loss of unalienable rights. These rights were given to us by the founding fathers to ensure that the citizens would have a say in important issues of the country. The problem with Government control is the corruption, loss of unalienable rights, and the total downfall of a nation; that is why a form of anarchy would help straighten out this country and prevent a downfall.
Under anarchist control, the risk of a nation suffering from corruption is severely lowered. If politicians carry very little to no power then there is no way corruption can impact anyone or anything in a severe way. In the modern-day United States, people cherish their freedom so when people hear about even the slightest corruption of the government the people start to get mad. Robert Byrd said “There is no doubt that constitutional freedoms will never be abolished in one fell swoop, for the American people cherish their freedoms, and would not tolerate such a loss if they could perceive it. But the erosion of freedom rarely comes as an all-out frontal assault but rather as a gradual, noxious creeping, cloaked in secrecy, and glossed over by reassurances of greater security.” Today many people do believe that the corruption of the government is going to be its downfall.
Our founding fathers wrote in the constitution certain unalienable rights that can never be taken away under the government. These rights include life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The government has restrictions on us and some of them are unjustifiable. Some of the rules they make are just to please people and doesn’t actually help anybody or make the nation safer. In Anarchy people would be in charge of their own safety whether it was from a thief or another nation I believe that people would come together, as history has shown us, to protect their way of living.
The nation could survive because of anarchy and would actually face less political problems but will have foreign affairs problems. The people would end up forming groups but that is expected but they have done that all throughout history. An author who didn’t give his name wrote an article on the website beinglibertarian and he said: “As long as everyone within that group only imposes their rules on themselves and each other, while leaving everyone else alone, that is perfectly consistent with the non-aggression principle and property rights, yet winds up creating a State within a stateless society.” it seems that it would be inevitable that we would go back to a statist society unless everyone around the world agreed this is the way to live.
