      You know what would be better in each of those situations? The offending party not existing in the first place.

      Don’t have to save the Jews if the Gestapo doesn’t exist.

      No need to change the HOA if you don’t have a HOA.

      I could tackle the IRS Example as well, except I actually believe in (some degree of) taxes. Good on the people for finally twisting the IRS’s arm on free file options though, they’ve been vastly limited until lately.

              It doesn’t even engage with what I said, it dismisses it out of turn.

              To break it down for anyone else bothering to read this:

              The natural conclusion to the points about HOAs and Gestapo is thus:

              You don’t have to change the police system if it doesn’t exist. Why fix broken, when we can tear it down, see what we need and don’t need, and rebuild something else in its place.

              This point has been entirely ignored. I didn’t think I had to spell it out entirely, but there we go. I’m done with this entirely. Good day.
