"It's not that hard to get food. Millenia before our ancestors discovered fire, they managed to eat."

[/ QUOTE ]



It wasn't hard them because government didn't get in the way. We produce more than enough as it is for all the people in the world to eat. The problem is not production, it's politics.

A shining example of why less government is better.

[/ QUOTE ]

As often as not, rebels overpower the government, and deny food. A shining example of how more government can mean more freedom.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, because if the rebels overpower the government and deny food, they have become the ipso facto new government of sorts. And that new government is denying food.

Some government is a necessary evil, but minimalist government is best.

All of the greatest evils, the mass slaughters, the greatest sufferings throughout the bloody course of humankind, have been promulgated by governments.
