I would be willing to bet that the argument that people are incapable of “self government”, and would devolve into anarchy, hedonism and reduced to a crying baby state, without a govt that seeks to CONSERVE traditional life, was the self same one voiced by King George in 1775.

That's fine, if you want to be a historical illiterate in the service of libertarianism, go right ahead.
Since, well, Patrick Henry of all people voiced essentially the same point I've made.
