Yes, Government Dependence is Necessary

It is a strange twist of thought that some people deride a "dependence on government" as an evil. Of course we depend on government; we would have no civilization without one. To think that a society (or an individual) can exist without depending on what a government provides, one must continually work to keep their thoughts outside of reality. The continued existence of the human race would be short and even more brutal if everyone were to try and live free from the large-scale cooperation and services we all require, ones that can only be produced by a government. Those who continue to yell that a maximum amount of separation between humans is ideal for the sake of the vague idea of free should be seen as a selfish child throwing a temper tantrum when told they need to share their toys--objects they had no part in creating.
