When my resources are involuntarily contributed to others without
reasonable recourse, this to me is "government". Private enterprise has
to deal with the fact that the customer can always go to the
competition, which is not true with most forms of "government". All
"government"s end up being a "them vs us" situation eventually.

How about eliminating "government" and privatising its functions. Can
you say the word "libertarian"??
