I'm sorry you don't want to live in a functioning society I guess. Hopefully you can find an off-grid cabin where you can drop out of society and think only of yourself.

Oh right now? No absolutely not functional (but that's the point) right now. Letting these window licking goons "burn it all down" is how we'll end up with "Yellowstone National Park, brought to you by Chevron" and oil wells on every inch of BLM land. Was it previously functional? At times, but it's become less functional since politicians on both sides decided they only represented corporate interests instead of the interests of their constituents and the country.

So tell me, what happens next after we "burn it all down"? How does that fix anything? And you're willing to "burn it all down" even though that will cause massive harm to tens if not hundreds of million people?
