    Walmart can’t do shit without the cops.

      I thought we were starting over. What makes you think there won’t be cops?

      It’s cute how people think scrapping the constitution and starting over will somehow make things better.

        Imagine thinking the owning class wouldn’t be the ones creating the new constitution…

        Something needs to change, but once we open that can of worms were going to see things like:

        “All citizens are required to give all personal data to meta whether using the platform or otherwise.”

        “Oil will be enshrined as the National Energy Source™”

        “Union activity is an act of economic terrorism.”

  How do you prevent it from turning into a “might makes right” system ?

      Is mutual aid more likely without a government?
