Are government and politics necessities? Why or why not?

Throughout human history government has been the source of great injustices and repression, not to mention being MASSIVE sources of ineffciency, so why indeed do we put up with them? The answer is that the absence of government is a state called anarchy, and anarchy sucks worse than a bad government. This absence of government is not a state of freedom, but a state of oppression where one's oppressors are every other citizen. There are no property rights, no limits on crime except for the physical limits. If someone is strong enough (either individually or as a group) to take your property or life, or even take you into bondage and force you to work for them, then they can and often WILL do so. In places where anarchy reigns, economies do not function because there is no incentive to work to produce anything since it will just be stolen from you as soon as you produce it. Anarchy thus causes rampnat poverty, though one can also say that rampant poverty weakens the government, thereby making anarchy more likely. So we need some degree of government to prevent this state. A just and free government will only do as much governing as is necessary to create the Rule of Law, but few governments stop there. By their very nature they are power magnets and tend to attract ambitious people who wish to expand the power they wield. Politics is the process of managing the government to decide what it should do and how it should do it. This is important because government is so powerful it can very easily be misused by those ambitious people I spoke of. It is the classic double-edged sword, necessary, yet dangerous to the wielder as well as the problem against which it is wielded.
