If the government was to be overthrown, there would be chaos and luteing. Humans as a species have been led somehow to a scavenger type mentalitly. Many humans would see this as an opportunity to rise to power. They would get scared people, who think it will better them, to fallow them. These groups of people would then take consume the rest of the nation, and eventually we'd be many seperate "governments" at war with one another. These wouldn't be democracys either. We would be under the rule of dictatorships. That is why many of us don't necesarily want to overthrow the government. Some want to change it, and some want to make it optional. Not everyone on this list is even Anarchist. At least they weren't several months ago when I left the list. Just beccause we're all on the same mailing list doesnt mean we all think alike. Wouldnt that be boring??? Chaos
