In some places those who obey are called "subjects" They may think of themselves as free but their status is very different from "Citizens".

So law is bad, eh? I think you were misdirected here - the Anarchist's Forum is down the hall, two doors to the left.

Nice thoughtful reply. I stand in awe of a mind that can recognize an anarchist simply by the way he draws the distinction between a subject and a citizen. That's a real talent you have

I'll try to use small words so you can understand. I am a citizen. I am not a subject. I do not have to live with bad law. I am one of the people who votes so I can help change the law. This is easier if the law is local. My rights are ultimately (big word, sorry)protected by my own access to force if need be. Get it?
