ANARCHY - THE TIME HAS COME

You may wonder, "Has this guy lost his mind?" Nope, in my current state of mind I could write my last will and testament, and it would stick.
In this Commentary - We Need Constitution Communications, if you listen you will hear at one point I mentioned, "Articles of Anarchy." Start listening at minute marker 9:36. If you listen, you might get the idea that I wasn't being serious, and you would be right. I was just suggesting that if we don't want the Constitution, we might as well get rid of it and do something else.
Then I got to thinking, "what is anarchy?" So I looked it up in the free dictionary - www.thefreedictionary.com/anarchy and I read the definitions, and of course, like all other dictionaries, it uses common usage definitions. But, they also give where the word comes from...
[New Latin anarchia, from Greek anarkhiā, from anarkhos, without a ruler : an-, without; see a-1 + arkhos, ruler; see -arch.]
[C16: from Medieval Latin anarchia, from Greek anarkhia, from anarkhos without a ruler, from an- + arkh- leader, from arkhein to rule]
[1530–40; < Middle French anarchie or Medieval Latin anarchia < Greek anarchía lack of a leader]
So, the original definition of the word is, "without a ruler or leader." From this we have been given "common usage definition" that dictionaries give us, that "anarchy" means lawlessness, disorder, and chaos. But nothing in the original definition remotely suggests that. While the word means, "without ruler," it does not mean, "without rules." With this in mind, I did this commentary... Articles of Anarchy -
So, today I have become a proponent of anarchy. Hence, the creation of this forum, "Voice of Anarchy."
