Maybe we should double down on capitalism again.
It's the only move the US has used in living memory.
Like when Elon gets rid of "all regulations" make private bounty hunters/hitman legal again?
Anything is legal if it's not prosecuted.
And with a dismantled government, how much can they really prosecute?
Prosecution is one possibility. Getting gunned down is another. Getting sent to Gitmo is another. Having your family retaliated against is another.
I assure you the last thing to be dismantled will be methods of enforcement on the populace.
They won't - that's why your military will soon be a judicial militia.
