Most are to brain washed to think on their own ((i live here so i can diss us)) And that is a very good point about the regulations are there to keep us safe. But in an anarchy the people create there own rules and work together to create a system that works. |

There are too many people obsessed with power to let that work, not to mention I highly doubt people would be willing to work for the greater good. Farmers would farm for themselves and people would starve. Workers would stop working and people would be stealing..with no use for money. eventually, people will look for a leader to take them out of the horror, and that leader would probably rule as a monarch or dictator. Eh..good luck anarchy. |

Think of all the good things the government provides for you. You could also think of the bad things, but health insurance for one. And schools for metnally handicapped people. Places that help find jobs for physically handicapped people. All funded by the dreaded government. Sure, in some places, they're still working on it. But without even a bad governent, where would the people of that country be? |

Bleeding on the Floor Age: 33 Gender: Male Posts: 1315 | Cyanide Hell....: [/size][/font][/quote] Yeahh but as western society we are already hardwired with a set of expectations on whats acceptable and whats not .and expectations turn to rules and eventually rules turn into laws. you cant make rules without a governing body or an agency of some sort to enforce them . so therefor if people were to create there own rules on how to live and so on they would in turn have to create a governing body to decided on what rules should be enforced thus totally killing the whole idea of anarchy . |

Actually, the first person to describe himself as an anarchist was Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, and he could also be described as a socialist. Also anarchism isn't something that could really work on a large scale--as in, a massive population and plot of land the size of the United States. It's not something you can force people into--i.e., the people who wouldn't want to work for the greater good. If that were to somehow happen, it would probably unfold like you described. But small communes governing themselves by using direct democracy would do just fine. |

Essentially it started with sort of "swaps", one man lives in a place that is good for growing carrots and another lives in a place that is good for growing potatoes. One needs potatoes from the other, who needs carrots from the first, it's easy to see that they would trade, what one needs for what the other needs. Money rose from that, essentially when employing people. You employ someone, in return for their time and labour, they'll want you to supply the food and such that they can no longer procure themselves. Money is the promise of doing this for them. Changing to an anarchic society wouldn't mean that this would be removed, simply that it would no longer be controlled by an authority, and would follow the laws of economics naturally. |

and if they get me Killjoy Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 3 | please correct me if i'm wrong, which most likely i am becuase i think i'm confusing two different things... but the symbol for anarchy, you know the A in the circle, stands for the asmodeas, which is a demonic force driving teenagers to sexual perversion and suicide. that is %100 true, you can even look it up. but does that mean that anarchists have to do with the devil and satanic tendencies? what's all this about the government? |
Ignore Alien Orders Salute You in Your Grave Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 2026 | It has other meanings predating anarchism, . But the anarchist usage is an A for anarchy and an O for order, and represents part of a quote from Pierre-Joseph Proudhon. Also, it's supposed to look like this, not like the ones you see on shoelaces at Hot Topic. Anarchism in general is a political philosophy that involves the abolition of government. It has nothing to do with the symbolism you mentioned. |
