The Guts of it

A creative, life-sustaining society is held
together by peaceful, cooperative forms of
behavior. Voluntariness, persuasion, and a
respect for the inviolability of individuals, are
the modi operandi of social beings. The
sociopaths, however, will have none of this,
which helps to explain their unending hostility
to the marketplace, private ownership of
property, and other expressions of individual
liberty; and their attraction to political (i.e.,
coercive) forms of organization. To sociopaths,
coercion is to be preferred over cooperation,
conscription over contract. Because force must
remain the paramount virtue of state systems, no
human action can be regarded as immune from
political direction. This is a primary reason we
are witnessing an exponential increase in
government regulation of even the most personal
matters, whether it be smoking, obesity, child-
rearing, treatment of pets, or the wearing of
seat-belts. Such thinking produces a world in
which every aspect of life becomes a political
question.

And almost no one realizes they have been and are
being politicized beyond all human recognition.

When It's All Over, I suspect almost no one will
have a clue Why Everything Came Apart with all
that Order in Place.
