Is this biased reporting?

We'd do a thousand times better under a system of Anarchism than we would under our present system of Capitalism, but again, it just goes to show how little you know about anything at all even despite your winded, pompous, insulting, and  condescending manner.

The system as it stands today is a fusion of Enlightenment ideas and ideals put into practice, which always suffers compared to theory, and which you, in your narrow, reductionist view choose to characterize as Capitalist -- an intellectually dishonest and fundementally false descriptive to anyone who peels back even one layer of the onion. Nothing is that pure.

The system is comparatively more Capitalist than Socialist, when viewed next to modern day Sweden, and comparatively more Socialist than Capitalist when compared to the US in 1895 or the U.K. in the Victorian era. In those days, the various robber barons and/or aristocrats worked relatively unfettered by regulation, State/Federal regulation, which grew in the 20th century as the influence of Socialism moderated the Capitalist excesses of the 19th century. The system is far more Humanist than Theocratic, based on our Constitution.

You lose, again, and will continue to do so until you get the other half.

For you to assert that a nation-state would be better off under Anarchy is a sign of your utter ignorance of what Anarchy is, and what it leads to. For you to excuse acting out violently, in a riot, as a suitable response to social unfairness is an insult to the patience and lawful struggle of lawful activists such as Rosa Parks, who recently passed away and who took the moral high ground (see my much earlier comment) and worked at making a difference and overcoming a social obstacle. That work was done within the context of lawful activity. A riot is the lazy criminal's response to the prospect of having to work to make a change.

Go to the back woods of Zaire, perhaps Sierra Leone or Liberia (heck, parts of Afghnistan or Iraq will do nicelyl) and experience Anarchy.

While you are at it, stay there. With any luck, you will get shot and die, and the world's aggregate ignorance will decrease slightly.
