pretty much autonomous from gov't interference.

That isn't the goal.

Government is necessary, and proper. It is the role it takes that is debatable.

Government is necessary to defend the rights of the citizens. That doesn't happen in places like Chad.

You hit a key point. The role of gov't is debatable. In order to advance your ideas, win the argument and get your way, you need to be clear and concise and persuasive. If you think that the rest of humanity is just too stupid to be reasoned with, you will have lost all hope of influence.
