I don't see it as an either or type thing. I mean it's not you either hate the government or you love it. I believe the earth and it's resources ultimately belong to nobody. No matter how good one is at exploiting those resources, ie earning money, you did not create the resource, that is a simple objective fact. I believe this means you do have some obligation to your fellow man and to the earth itself. It can also be very hard to quantify just where obligations end and earning begins.

There is certainly a place for government but at the same time governments are notorious for exploiting their subjects and those subjects are the only ones who can keep the governments in check. Government will not keep itself in check.
