If the benefit is worth the risk

On mobile so quoting is hard

A lot of this is still hypothetical and based upon future-tech though, so it's neither here nor there.

Thing is, it *is* an interesting concept to mull over, and think about when it comes to shrinking the size of govt

Have you read Snow Crash? @Fitzydog

Yes, I have. It's a little bit hyperbolic in the way ancap is presented, but not far off

The reality is more constrained

I mean that's the point of the book.

right lol

I think the government outside of the FBI, CIA and department of state can be removed.

FUCK THAT

?

Those are the three things I wish to see destroyed in my lifetime XD

Department of state cause dealing with foreign affairs.

The US govt should be nothing more than a glorified border patrol

FBI will eat up the DEA, ICE, Border control etc

I don't think that'll work as well

Smaller the govt, the freer the man

Someone needs to enforce federl law inside

I agree.

The FBI only exists to enforce rule of law more or less

Like I said, "law" is just the rules of whatever contract you're in. If there's no fed to contract with, there's no need for federal law

I think we need a basic social contract. Its almost a biological need in my eyes

We need an over arching hierarchy to set the basic rules

What if I want to play by my rules, with other people, away from you? Did you know murder wasn't even made illegal in some places until the mid-1800s?

The floor was wiped with Cetronius. Never forget.

That's not to say there weren't repercussions though

so just watched the movie "Seven" and fuck

that was heavy

"WHAT'S IN THE BOOOOOX?"

@Fitzydog that's why you leave the area with said rules

<:makes_you_think:382980749780844554>

if you have a friend who is an alcoholic, and he is having a relapse and you find him on the floor drinking. What do you do?

And by "leaving", I'd go to a different town or city that I will enter into a social contract with, free from a federal "law" that seeks to impose it's rules in between me, and that location.

They don't have to let me in, and I don't have a right to go inside

I think some basic rules always need to he enforced. No exceptions. That's what the federal government is for

im actually a fond lover of the FBI

not the CIA tho

they do some stupid shit

CIA is a shitshow but a necessary evil in my eyes

how

so?
