I don't need a system of law not to shoot people or walk out without paying. Some of us have ethics. I have found authority in America broadly garbage from bottom to top. It's not just the top that is fucked.

I cannot take your word for that, even if it's true, I cannot trust everyone, and even if someone is a good person, every human is vulnerable to emotions and failures of judgement, so yes we do need laws and rules and nothing can change that short of some system of taking away everyone's free will. I already said that the enforcers as, top to bottom, are a separate issue.
