You know what I hate? The fact that the British government still pays for Blair's security.

Back on topic, I kind of hesitate when it comes to an anarchist viewpoint. I love the idea that we could all live free from government, but I rather think that human nature would put paid to such a Utopia within days. Patriarchy's existed since the Iron Age, remember- long before systems of institutionalised government were founded.

Human nature isn't wholly negative though - we also have an innate capacity for cooperation, which is fundamental for anarchy.

BTW, not getting at you but that's not really on topic either (except in a very general sense) - the article's about the difference in how blue and white collar crimes are treat, and how the lower classes are villainised.
