I don't expect a utopia, but I do think that taking away the government to look to as a parental trust figure will cause more individuals to rise to the occasion.

If people can't assume moral because legal they must do moral reasoning on their own in a distributed fashion.

Murders already illegal and still happens. Weed isn't immoral so most harm comes from government regulation. Issues like PFOAs are uniquely suited to legality preventing public whistleblowers from stepping up.

"Who enforced the law and judged cases before state bureaucrats took it over in the 1800s?" is a question I like to ask.

The Common Law is much older than nation-state bureaucracy.
