Anyone that believes they would be better off without governments is an idiot. So, sure, perhaps it wasn't created FOR my benefit, but it benefits the people in general it should be made (through force if necessary) to continue to benefit them.

I will only say this once more...
If you believe that force applied to the people by governments hand is a good thing then I believe you have no knowledge of history, of liberty or freedom. If you really understand what history says and what liberty and freedom means then you would never say that force brings benefits to the people.
And government only brings benefits to the people when used to protect their safety and then only in limit cases.
Once people understand that great power in the governments hand will always lead to serfdom then the world will truly advance.
Anyone that thinks government supports them, benefits them, can give them equality can give them anything beneficial lacks the facts they need to be even involved in these debates. When they pretend to give you equality they are indeed taking control to give off this illusion. When they regulate something they take that control out of your your hands and put in their own hands. When they give you things they aren't giving you liberty or freedom or equality, but stripping your freedom, liberty, your control, but are indeed giving you equality. Equality in owning nothing, in having nothing, in being nothing. You seem to know so little about history of the world, the reality of the world. The unchanging undeniable facts that will never change no matter how many times you try it. It just makes me so very sad inside.
Oh well, you're a lost cause and I suck at debating. No need to go further with you.
As for the war on drugs, global warming, war on terror, most regulations, etc. Its really this simple. They need an enemy to fight and someone/something to demonize to gain control. There is very little truth in any of those wars if anything at all in reality, but as long as they can make people believe action must be taken they have the power to take everything from you. Even if there is nothing untrue in their argument, you should never accept the idea they can fix it.
Btw, governments were created for protection from enemy nations. Not anything for caring for people, or equality, or making sure life is safe, or has justice or giving money, or anything else you can think of. Also, society was not formed to care for each other, but instead personal survival. The only reason people in society helped each other was for their own personal survival.
Oh and I love this quote. You can figure out how it applies on your own.
If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
It beyond my understanding how people can't understand that personal responsibility can not be replaced. It is something you live and die by only. It can not be thrown to the side and have any sort of liberty still present. That lesson has been taught so many times by now it has to be nothing but ignorance that people can't see it. It just has to be.
