    3. Unfortunately, there are still a number of people who continue in the fatal belief that government rests on natural laws, that it maintains social order and harmony, that it diminishes crime, and that it prevents the lazy man from fleecing his fellows. I shall therefore examine these contentions. A natural law is that factor in man which asserts itself freely and spontaneously without any external force, in harmony with the requirements of nature. For instance, the demand for nutrition, for sex gratification, for light, air, and exercise, is a natural law. But its expression needs not the machinery of government, needs not the club, the gun, the handcuff, or the prison. To obey such laws, if we may call it obedience, requires only spontaneity and free opportunity. That governments do not maintain themselves through such harmonious factors is proven by the terrible array of violence, force, and coercion all governments use in order to live. Thus Blackstone is right when he says, "Human laws are invalid, because they are contrary to the laws of nature."

      As human beings we ruled ourselves without any goverments or governers. Humans doesn't need these things at all,a governer can only provide unfair punishments to us.The idea that Anarchy lead us to chaos is only for corrupted minds. Our nature is not available for a governor to rule us.Since the Homo Sapiens are te only mankinds on this earth we know we never had it in our nature.That's why anarchy maybe good for our routine.So thats the way I think about that part
