Government's two choices
Just as I wish for any nasty gang, I want government to fail. To get so bad that no one complies any more. To spend its way into oblivion, and try to "tax" itself out of the box. To go overboard with everything it does. And, as if it cares about my wishes, government is doing so as fast as it possibly can.
I would also be OK with it if government went so smoothly that I didn't notice it at all. Yeah, death to the State is still better, but as long as it's not molesting me, I'm not going to go out of my way to notice it. But this isn't the nature of the thing.
The more uncomfortable people become with government, the sooner they'll help it die. So, in spite of my own discomfort, I encourage government to be as evil and intrusive as it wants. Go all out. Governments always commit suicide, no matter who gets blamed by "history".
I'll try to prepare for the worst, while hoping to avoid it.

"'That government is best which governs not at all'; and when men are prepared for it, that will be the kind of government which they will have. "
-Henry David Thoreau
I'm ready. Why am I expected to wait for the imbeciles to agree? ;)
You are not.
"But a government in which the majority rule in all cases cannot be based on justice, even as far as men understand it."
-Henry David Thoreau
I really do recommend |Civil Disobedience by H.D. Thoreau if you have not read it yet. It is truly a phenomenal read!
