In a nation where there are lots of corrupt practices by majority of its leaders, don't you think the only way out for the people is anarchy? I have not been a supporter of anarchism at previous times and I have always tried giving myself hope that things would get better some day, but with the behaviors and corrupt works of our leaders, one would begin to wonder where we are really heading to. Sometimes anarchism comes to my mind, since the human government is all but nothing to write about.
Although I know most people are not courageous enough, and most people don’t want to learn anything that attacks their all-too-precious worldview. This is the same worldview that has been keeping people indebted to an unjust system of human governance. Indeed, most people, even though they would probably say otherwise, would rather be kissed with a lie than slapped with the truth.
Anarchism is the boldest of revolutionary social movements to emerge from the struggle against capitalism, it aims for a world free from all forms of domination and exploitation. But at its heart is a simple and convincing proposition: people know how to live their own lives and organize themselves better than any expert could. Others cynically claim that we need a government to protect us. They claim anarchy is impractical and utopian: it would never work. On the contrary, anarchist practice already has a long record, and has often worked quite well. Histories has shown that an anarchist society can succeed at enabling all its members to meet their needs and desires.
Ironically, the case for anarchy derives its strength from empirical evidence, not theory. Most of the world, for most of its history, has existed without effective governments. As noted economic historian Joel Mokyr points out, “In England,” for example, “there was not even a professional police force to protect private property” until the 19th century.
Large arenas of economic activity in the world remain anarchic, or nearly so, to this day. For example, there is no supranational sovereign with the authority to create formal international laws to regulate countries or to enforce such laws if they existed. Adding to international anarchy is the absence of state-made, supranational commercial law to enforce contracts between private international traders.
Finally, I think the people should be more courageous, they should put away fears and be ready to fight against corrupt practices, with this there would be no more room for corrupt individuals to manipulate or put the people into an unjust system of leadership.
