Keep it reasonable.

WARNING
Kumbaya moment ahead. Cynics and pessimists turn back now.

This was my New Years Resolution. Be The Change You Want to see in The World.
This video is my inspiration whenever I start to get really negative about the direction that our world is going.

For those that are old enough to remember the movie Network, you may appreciate this too. Music by Muse.

Cool, anarchy. After "the system" has been toppled, then what? Establish a new system??
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy.

You can understand capitalism when you realize that Thomas Edison improved the world more than Karl Marx

"Be The Change You Want to see in The World"???

Hmmm....let's see...hmmmmm...

I'd like to retire soon to a resort in Florida and a summer place in the Rockies. AAhhhhh...Oh and I'd like to get my handicap down to about a 8 or 9...

It's that what you're talking about?

I don't know about the rest, but isn't "Kill all the lawyers" the first step to take when seeking anarchy? Talk about upside!

You wouldn't have to establish anything. Nature abhors a vacuum, and there would be no shortage of nifty folks eager to fill it (all virgin-pure in their motives, no doubt).
There is no charge for awesomeness

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no!

(instrumental)

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss
