What is Government if not the regulation of Freedom?

in #government8 years ago

Peace is what is what the overwhelming majority of Humanity desires. Yet the overwhelming majority path taken is through the violence of government. And what does government seek to do?

Control a monopoly on the initiation of violence in the name of creating peace at the most benevolent telling of such a tale.

Yet when people are not allowed the absolute pinnacle of decision making in their lives and must abide by the initiation of violence by others, not the reactionary violence that is defense, there is oppression by design. That oppression creates security for those in charge of the monopoly for only so long. When they whom are oppressed rise up, the initiated violence only begets more violence because power corrupts through the ever increasing desire to maintain control.

I rather die by a random act of chance on behalf of a natural disaster while teaching others to maintain and improve the quality of their lives freely from others than to be fighting for my freedom from others. Unfortunately, as the hand I and so many others are dealt, we must be fight the good fight so that in time we may have the complete freedom to teach others, if not leave a world for our children to do so.
