I don't think that anarchy is even possible, except for a short time, (the dictionary definition - http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/anarchy )

"Anarchy is the perfect democracy. Everyone has a say and decisions take
into account everyone's positions. Decisions are taken by consensus."

The problem is, if some people don't follow the consensus (a law) as they don't agree with it, either others will have to enforce the consensus on people who resist, (effectively becoming a government) or doing nothing, rendering the laws (consensus) useless, making it useless to vote on them in the first place.

The consensus would be a recommendation.

I must assume that we agree on the same definition of anarchy, click on the link, meaning 1.
P.S. How do you make show-hide quotes that say "- Show quoted text -"?

"a prevailing army (of criminals) dominates citizens, effectively becoming a government"

In My opinion that sounds like the Government of the UK,witness the recent expenses scandal.
I'm not a student of U.S.A. politics but it seems to me that they have a better system than the U.K. where we have no say in the selection of candidates.

It does. Just that the dictators are not the politicians. Its the
corporations. Besides, not very many people vote. And, as in the rest of
the World when their elected oficial decides to betray them, they can do
nothing but protest.

Our self-appointed BDFL is Rubén Rodríguez a.k.a. quidam - http://trisquel.info/en/wiki/trisquel-team showing his BDFL title.

You mistake Trisquel for a democracy, I think.

All right. Then may I ask him a few questions?
