I think people can live their lives without government. All government is simply "rules" but these rules are political. Many rules unfairly benefit or harm others. This should not be. The only rule should be "Do whatever you want, as long as it doesn't violate the rights of anyone else". Once this is the rule the number of rules decreases substantially and the world can become prosperous, peaceful, healthy and happy. For example, once import/export duties are done away with others who found it difficult to impossible to trade can do so. A person in Africa can sell their, say root crops, in the US. A person in the US can sell their running shoes to Africa without the menace of duties and worthless regulations. So, is this possible, a world without government?
