First i tought maybe yes we need a goverment.
And i had ideas about it but after my post i start over thinking about it .
And come on this moment to the conlussion iam not sure about it.
Because afterall Second Life is run by a company with a great idea second life,
but they need to make money to stay in bussines and that is not a good base for starting a goverment.
So iam wandering with my tought about it and recall my idea.

An idea is not such an easy thing to recall. You have proposed a government for SL, and now the conceptual snowball of government in SL is rolling down the hill of history, adding flakes to its mass till it forms a giant snowball of statism big enough to destroy the universe.

So when this monstrous web of coercion pervades not only this universe, but all the paraverses, when all the possible states of all possible realities have been rendered either mandatory or prohibited by the governments created as a result of your proposal, when the torch of liberty shines no more, when freedom is just an empty word that brings forth no meaning in the minds of any living being, remember this, Oerbewustzijn Archer: it's all your fault.

It always sounds like a good idea... if your in charge.

But sit back and think: Do I *really* want to pay money to have someone else tell me how I should be enjoying myself?

I mean sit back and try to imagine what it would be like if say *I* ran the show...


.... Scarey isn't it?

Enough to put anyone off!

Government is bad in the real world, why make more of it elsewhere?

So it's some kind of onomatopoeia, I take it?

NO, we do not, do some research on the forums you will find multiple battles over this very topic.

If thats not enough for you look at the real world and ask yourself what has your government done for you lately?

Then Multiply that by 0 and you will get what use a government in sl would be for you.

Oerbewustzijn, you might try posting in one of the dozen other threads on the subject, rather than start a new one.
