Have you got a better example of a country operating without a government than Somalia?

Why did our Founding Fathers institute government? They instituted local governments, state governments and a federal government. And they wrote rules! and rules about writing rules! Or do you think they were a bunch of liberals?

I’m for a lean efficient government. But there are some things that only government can do effectively. Rules about the marketplace, international trade, immigration, etc. Some need to be done at the federal level, some need to be done at the state level.

The pizza label, by itself is not tyranny. Requiring the pizza label is tyranny. If you want to buy only pizza with labels, that is your free choice. It becomes tyranny when you require all pizzas to have the labels. That removes choice.

You're the one making the comparison. There is a huge difference between anarchy and government regulated pizza.

If you lean to the pizza regulation side, you are a liberal.

Own it.
