“A World without Rules” (Summary): p.100-103

Living in a world without rules may initially seem liberating, allowing for unconventional
choices like having cookies for breakfast. However, the absence of regulations leads to
chaos, with unsafe streets, neglected playgrounds, and environmental degradation.
Everyday activities, from enjoying the beach to playing sports, become risky without
essential services. The text emphasizes the importance of government, democracy, and
