Nice dodge

I don't have time to address all of your post now as I'm at work, but it tough to let this one go:

"No civilization without government? I would recommend looking back through history in some detail and thinking about that some more. Maybe a highly-centralized government is not a net plus."

Who said anything about centralized government? Whether it's centralized or decentralized or inbetween, it still NEEDS TO EXIST or there will be no law and order. For it to exist there must be taxation. Period.
