There was government in Egypt and in Babylon.

Its black, with lots of lightning around here. I've had three short power outages so far this evening. :(

You can\'t have a sense of humor, if you have no sense!

True but h*mo sapiens had been around for a couple hundred thousand years before then.

As far as we can tell, the thing we call 'civilization' has occupied less than 5% of mankind's existence. It's a 'new idea'. The 'latest thing', so to speak.

Mad Max comes to mind for how it is getting.

That is one the lonier claims that have been made.

There has never been a case ever of society surviving for even one single year without a government. They were Kings, Queens Emperors, chiefs, war lords, big thug on the block these are all governments. Democracy is another form but it is moderately rare in history.

Any time there are enough people in contact with each other to be called a society, there will be a government. Ever hunter gatherer societies have governments.

LOL! As far as history goes there have always been governments whether they where called warlords, emperors, chiefs, village's oldest, kings, dictators, popes, prime ministers, presidents, capo di tutti capi, etc.

Failure does not prove something is impossible, failure simply indicates you are not using the right tools... "If it doesn\'t fit, use a bigger hammer!" --------------------------------------------------------------

Yep. The bullies organized themselves into a union called "government".

Hope This Helps! Rich

Yes, the republican party has fallen so far that its members are barely tied to reality now - they live almost completely in a fantasy world of their media keepers' design, and like it.
