I don't agree. When governments aren't stopping people or diverting resources, people can always organize themselves to solve problems... and in practice they do. The existence of states is in many senses the formalization of that.

My comment wasn't intended to be generally anti-government but strongly minimal government. If there is an important thing that requires more government then we should have it-- but we should always be aware of the costs and risks and minimize and diversify where possible.
