So long as the sovereign rights of every individual http://www!.civil-liberties!.com/pages/wor!.!.!. is eroded continuously by laws that restrain us from "this or that," things that by our unalienable rights are ours to have could bring us to the attitude "every man for himself!."

The Patriot Act has some good points; but it illegally restricts many of our Constitutional rights, and any officer of the law who acts under the Patriot Act becomes a "secret policeman!."

We're all going to get tired of our insane Nationalism, then something will happen!. We are supposed to be Federalist, not Nationalist!. (See the above link!.)

It gives us all "a reason not to care anymore!."Www@QuestionHome@Com

Anarchy is the closest we could come to this!. We would have some people around that wouldnt care for anyone but themselves!. But then on a whole most people do not behave this way even when given the opportunity!. Otherwise we wouldnt have evolved as far as we have done, the wild west would never have been conqueredWww@QuestionHome@Com

No!. Case in point, Sept 11, 2001!. A major disaster and people opened up their hearts to those around them and offered what support they could muster!. Sure, there were people that ran for their lives and there were those that took advantage of the situation, but in a grander scale; those that band together and form a community will protect and provide for each other while those that strike out on themselves have only themselves to rely on for survival!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well, I sure hope we don't end up that way!.
And yes we would!. It's something ingrates love to call "anarchy" the most foolish form of "government" I've ever heard of!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
