Hurrah anarchy!

Overthrowing a government without any concrete plan for the next step and not wanting the new government to be formed - and instead want to overthrow it once again.

But as long as a society works, why we need a government? Especially to direct tax payers money towards all those military spending and killings. There can be a system to replace all the taxation, given that even with taxation there are still already many free riders.

Carry on with the good work, but may I ask who do you want to vote for in the next election?
:cool:

Is there a better choice?

Can't help but recall some BS that I heard in the past.

According to the logic of the governments in some countries especially those where there is no mechanism (e.g. impeachment) to remove the 'president / rulers', the ruling parties will say:
"There are only 300,000 people in the protest, that means 19.96 million (Romania population) - 300,000 people are supporting the government by not participating in the protest... Thank you and we will continue to work hard."

Except that protesters and president are on the same side this time.
;-)

A good reason not to have a too powerfull "do everything" president!

It's nice to see this.

We would definitely need to do the same here in France.

That's not the point at all, do you even know what's going on in Romania? Hint: it's not anarchy.

It's democracy, that's what's going on in Romania right now.
