government is a synonym for something else

The role of government is said to be one of a protective nature, and others see it to have a role of a care taker too by way of social programs. Common sense can show us ALL governments step outside of the protective and caretaker roles and act as a predator, Not only are most governments act as predators on some level, any organization that can rightly be called a government or a state IS a predator. The word govern means as a verb to control, influence, or regulate (a person, action, or course of events), Now I am not sure what ment means from etymology, either it came from the latin word mentum (which was added to verbs to represent the product or result of a action) or the word ment (it came from the latin word mens (which is latin for mind).

Now we can see that government is a organization that controls peoples actions and events that happen in a certain geographical area (or beyond when a war or intellgece operation happens) and the main way to control people’s behavior is by using the threat of force, commonly referred to as duress. In Europe if you get ahold of a semi automatic rifle they will cage you for a certain amount of time, even though you didn’t harm anyone in that action. government threats of violence also extends to other actions lacking harm as well, most governments forbid keeping 100% of ones hard earned money, most governments also forbid starting a business, driving, freelancing, or building without a license, all those actions I just listed do not cause harm. people do not do the actions listed above to avoid the consequences governments would unjustly apply to them. Why would anyone accept this? it is because it is a belief almost held by everyone that something called “authority” exists. authority is defined as the right to give orders and enforce obedience.

if anyone believes government can enforce obedience and give commands justly and the people have a obligation to obey, they are a advocate of slavery, if you doubt this, what else is a master and slave relationship BUT someone telling people what to do and what not do to avoid being hurt and someone else obeying. The title of this article I have written is, “government” is a synonym for something else, and what a government is IS a master. We know that slavery is bad, when we see how government is a master by another name we can then know that government is bad just by being a government. any organization has to not violate rights to be legitimate, so a legitimate government is a oxymoron.

Well, you have to take into account that our current system in the united states is more concerned with consolidating the power the capitalist class, then anything else.

Like that's what it is, even Madison admitted this was one of the reason the constitution was drafted and I quote,

"Landholders ought to have a share in the government, to support these invaluable interests, and to balance and check the other. They ought to be so constituted as to protect the minority of the opulent against the majority"

This is why Direct Democracy was mostly squashed after the revolution.

The whole Nation State is meant to protect private ownership of land and the modes of production. To stop, in other words, a system of communal ownership and communal benefits.

So the capitalist class, in the USA, has created a system with barriers to entry, namely the spectacle of the elections here.

There aren't free elections solely because it is dominated by two parties, right?

These parties then control all of political life because they have control over the elections. Meaning that there is no organic form of democracy, just a game the ruling class play every so many years to fool the masses into thinking their power is legitimized.

Well, that and they have the might of the most powerful military in the world, which the capitalist class uses to conquer foreign markets that won't sell them natural resources.

This planets a mess man.

I refer to this world as "A World In Chains"

Yeah I definitely think so too.

I don't know if it is solely,"Government" that is the cause though.

Economics and politics are inherently inseparable concepts don't you think?

It definitely has much to do with power dynamics as a whole. Especially between property holders and those who don't hold property, or as Marx would say,"class divisions"

You have to question who really holds the power, or whatever.

Idk, just something to think about.
