Yes.
We should start by disbanding the US Military.
All those soldiers and officers who have 100% signed away their very lives, and that of their spouses, to the US Government.
We as citizens shouldn't need to have the US Government protect us, anyway, as that is bad.
We should all have weapons stockpiles, tanks, anti-aircraft weaponry, and fighter jets in our backyards so that we can protect our own selves from invading nations. We don't need the government to interfere with our ability to protect ourselves, because we know how to do it better than them.
You are so right.
We should also have our state and local governments disband their police forces, because we should be able to tell the difference between a friendly neighbor, and that guy down the block who keeps looking at your teenage daughter in that way you don't like. You definitely shouldn't be able to look him up on the sex offender's registry, as that's a violation of his privacy, and he should be able to stalk your family members without interference.
How about we remove any requirements for doctors in the US to be licensed and certified in the surgeries that they perform. If I can get my eye doctor to perform my wife's open heart surgery for a fraction of the price, I should totally have that choice, shouldn't I?
And finally, the local government should dispose of their Weights and Measurements teams.
I mean, you as a gasoline retailer should fully be trusted to sell as much gasoline as you want, and call it a gallon. Maybe you will give the customer a bit more than a gallon, some of the time.
My counter arguments are completely ridiculous.
Just like your arguments.
BC.
