Ironically, it got less attention because I didn't read all of it because it was out context. But I have read it now. so what would be your plan if we had no government?
What do you mean by "plan?" Are you looking for one person, or group of people to tell everybody what to do with their lives? That's what we have now which is referred to as "government," which has a monopoly on the use of force in its respective geographical region, and makes laws (threats) to make people conform to certain behaviors. That is not necessary for humans to live and thrive on this planet. As a matter of fact, the human population is more controlled now by surveillance than ever before in human history, and that is backed by the use of force when necessary. The agencies that surveil folks don't abide by laws, they hide behind them, and make new ones up to protect them. That's what happens when you have a monopoly on the use of force and competition is not allowed. The fact is, most people, worldwide, have been indoctrinated from birth that governments are legitimate and necessary. They are neither. In schools around the world, no one ever teaches people to ask the question whether governments are legitimate, they just say this is our form of government, and in some cases like the U.S., they represent you, which is a flat out lie! People are too dependent on them whether it's for a job (nearly 22 million people worked for state, local, and the federal government in the U.S.), benefits of some sort, corporations, for their very legal existence, the fraudulent banking system, the military, and on it goes. Therefore change will not come quickly. So what kind of plan would you like rolled out, other than to get people to begin to question whether government is legitimate or not. Just do the mental exercises and ask the questions - what is government? Can you touch it? Is it a thing or a though? Governments are made of people like you and I. Do I have the right to use force on another? No! If I don't, how did someone get the right to use force on another? Who gave them that right? Where did that person get the right to allow someone to use force on another if I don't have the right? Can I write a document that gives me the right? You know, questions like that and see what you come up with.
I do see what you're saying, and I agree that the current governments of this world are not about anything other than power. But, I don't think that governance is bad. I think it necessary given the state of the world and the people currently in it, but we just need to be governed by people who give a shit about us. Tearing down the government is not only a very bad idea, it's exactly what they want from what I can see.
