Government is Evil
Why is Government "Evil?" (page 4)


Saying that government is evil doesn't mean that one must be against roads, schools or stopping criminals. Most people who are against government also support many or most of these things. What they do not support is the fact that government does them. The government is an inefficient monopoly, is not accountable for its actions, uses them to expand its own power, and always attacks the interests of the average citizen. No good can come of government without accompanying, and far worse, evils.
All the great governments of the world... have been mere bands of robbers, who have associated for purposes of plunder, conquest, and the enslavement of their fellow men. And their laws, as they have called them, have been only such agreements as they have found it necessary to enter into, in order to maintain their organizations, and act together in plundering and enslaving others, and in securing to each his agreed share of the spoils.
