How deep must a person's head be stuck in the sand for him or her to believe that Putin and Iran/ISIS are boogeymen?
...or recognizes state propaganda when they see it. (see Iraq WMD's and Syria's Assad) Let me guess, Russia is a threat because they see a US led coup in Ukraine and the anticipation of NATO advancement toward their boarders and begin taking preparations to defend themselves? Iran, Russia and China are making moves to break the hegemony of the U.S, dollar as the world currency and beginning to sell oil outside of the U.S. dollar. That is why they are suddenly enemies.
So have you enlisted into the military yet? You may be too old to fight, but I'm sure you can peel potatoes in the mess hall.
A system meltdown??? Hmmmmmmm....since the present system is total corruption...then a meltdown seems like a good option.
Break it down....and rebuild!
Sound great in theory....however....the heart of man IS corrupt.....that ain't gonna change.....
so after the melt down.....the 'new rebuilt system' would EVENTUALLY look like it does TODAY.
ya can't 'meltdown' GREED and POWER!!!!

But anarchy isn't a synonym for chaos...Regardless, as I shown above, "ARCH" means ruler, and "an" means without. Anarchy - without ruler - not chaos.
BTW...When the U.S. invades Iraq and destroys it's infrastructure and murders and maims hundreds of thousands of people, did the U.S.G create anarchy or chaos?

Sure Cissy... So following your logic... If you are afraid of going into the water you have "hydrophobia", not rabies!
LMAO @ Cissy.

Following your logic, the state of nature is anarchy, so therefor it is CHAOS!

Ya got me...I swear my new years resolution was to stop trying to educate the willfully ignorant.
Yer right..anarchy means chaos.
NO Cissy... stick to your guns. Why give up just because most dictionaries disagree with you. Who knows... in your world of anarchy, there are no rules, so words can mean whatever you want them to mean.

1 A state of disorder due to absence or nonrecognition of authority:
1.1Absence of government and absolute freedom of the individual, regarded as a political ideal.
No, I don't advocate for war and death. Not an armchair general, I don't advocate wars that I have no intention of participating in. Unlike DVOR that has all the enemies identified that must be stopped, but has no intention of picking up a gun and jumping on the next flight to the Middle East to stop them.
I am NOT an advocate for war and death. But there are times that we have to stand up against thugs like Putin and ISIS. They represent a REAL threat to world peace -- not an imagined one. Ignoring the threat that they pose and letting them just roll over any other nation that they choose -- will NOT bring peace.

Anarchy really scares you doesn't it? I guess bad rulers(invading countries, indefinately detaining people, mass surveillance, secret kill lists, overthrowing governments) are better than no rulers. Organized action resulting in death and destruction of hundreds of thousands is better than no organized action at all.
Anachy = without ruler.(don't confuse with chaos)

saying anarchy = chaos is like saying religion = peace
so you believe in the pharisees and Sadducee.....the death of one is for saving he many......mass think directed by the government/religion.....a land of laws requires a catechism of government....as each generation passes through America more laws are enacted, more criminals made, more fear instilled etc etc.....all to keep the government in full power on the throne of the American mind/heart......it's the same as religion......
