The government companyThe government company

The government is just a company; it has workers who do their jobs and it pays them salaries, just like any other company.

Examples of corporations posing as "governments"

The difference between the government company and other companies is that the government company imposes itself upon other companies as well as people.

It gets away with this because people think the government company is different and has special rights.

The British government company charges people for a TV license, which funds the BBC regardless of which TV channels people watch.

That's like if McDonald's charged people for a food license, which funds McDonald's food regardless of which food people eat.

The only law we live under (and will ever live under) is the law of the jungle. The government can only extort and imprison innocent people because it is the mightiest force of the land. I define might as strength and the willingness to use it. The population is stronger than the government but isn't willing to fight.

If McDonald's was mightier than the government, they would be able to impose a food license. Therefore, the government doesn't have special rights to extort and imprison people - all people and companies have the ability to extort and imprison people, so long as they are mighty enough.

If a bunch of people were to come together as a company and impose a new law that says, for example, that paedophiles get the rope - that would be no less unjust than a government imposing any other law.

Breaking contractsBreaking contracts

People are not under the superstition that McDonald's has the right to prosecute them for breaking the McLaws that they didn't agree to, and if the McPolice tried to fine them for not paying the food license, people would fight back - and rightfully so.

In the same sense, you have the moral right to fight back against the government company that tries to prosecute you for breaking one of its ever changing laws that you didn't agree to.

Morality of lawsMorality of laws

All laws are immoral as they impose upon the free will of another person. However, if you are strong enough to enforce a law and you believe it to be righteous (e.g. necessary to protect people), then you should enforce it, regardless of whether people believe you to be legitimate (government company) or not (person or company).

Moral of the storyMoral of the story

Pass your own laws and enforce them. Look at government company laws as having the same legitimacy as McLaws.

You're definitely the one on the left, your projecting your insecurities on others and I can smell the pathetic anxiety for miles

I refuse to accept that. Might doesn't make it right. Morality is not bent by force. You might get away with abusing your peers now, but that doesn't make it right, not now, not ever.

Yes, people are not murderous savages if left to their own devices. That is a narrative sold by the state.
When people stop giving their power away, and have the means to protect what they have from confiscation (bitcoin), then a more palatable description of "jungle law" is that an armed society is a polite society.

The problem with analogies is the risk of drawing false parallels, like comparing the State (monopoly of violence) with private companies (voluntarism)

It is a fight for who, if anyone, controls the money supply. Without Bitcoin, we would have already lost.

But the Bible has 10 commandments. Aren’t these not the laws of god?

The bible is just a story book.
God is something else.
Is not the same as many think.

I'd rather be the lion on the right, but if I try to escape my cage I'll get tased.

So you think that you are born in the cage...
Amazing at what level the brainwashing is reaching today.

I think of the government more like a family... you know, like the mafia.
