The worst thing that can happen to a good cause is, not to be skillfully attacked, but to be ineptly defended. - Frédéric Bastiat
I try to deny myself any illusions or delusions, and I think that this perhaps entitles me to try and deny the same to others, at least as long as they refuse to keep their fantasies to themselves. - Christopher Hitchens

'Anarchy' in the academic meaning of the word, not the dictionary meaning, of course. |

It's only utopian in the sense that people are too stupid and/or brainwashed to see a better way to do things. It is not utopian in concept by a long shot. Unlike things like Project Venus, which require people to be 100% good all the time, anarchy has even more leeway than our current system for non-social behaviour. |

Well considering the last of the Bush family is about to leave the office with no more offspring to carry on such a legacy plan. And the fact that the government has a system of checks and balances to ensure one branch cannot overthrow another branch of the government. |

The offspring part is true, unless Jenna or Barbara run for President. |

A) Jenna could easily be president. She is about as qualified as W was, and we are primed for the first woman president in the next 4 to 16 years. |

Well as far as anarchy goes, it's something that take at least 50 years to set up in my opinion. Probably more like 200-300, but I like to be optimistic(and this is after things start to move in that direction, currently they seem stagnant). If it was done correctly, I don't think it would become a feudal society. |

157 is a prime number. The next prime is 163 and the previous prime is 151, which with 157 form a sexy prime triplet. Taking the arithmetic mean of those primes yields 157, thus it is a balanced prime.

They don't need a coup, really. Their power is secure. They wont be losing their money. I seriously doubt a coup would, or even could, take place in America. |
