I would truelly love to hear how anarchy supporters can justify their claims of "no government is needed to rule". Personally i feel anarchy will never work. People cannot live at all without someone taking control. Believe it or not guys, we would not be here talking on this forum if it werent for government. Government's were formed because at some point in time, humans realized that something had to control the massess. In order for anarchy to work, everyone would need to get along in some way, in other words something would still have to bind the people together. If nothing kept the massess in check, then those people would all work for themselves and nothing would be accomplished. Anarchy could never work on a large enough scale to make a difference, and even in a small anarchy organization, some person in the group would eventually take control as a leader. Scientific socialism was supposed to work when Marx wrote about it in the mid 1800's, it was supposed to work without any "real" leader, but just a collective mind-set of the people to live and work peacefully and efficiently. Yet, when tested, socialism proved to the human race to be impossible, as we saw leaders emerge. Just as lenin led the bolsheviks into a socialist revolution, so would a person inciting an anarchy revolution...and just as lenin took control after russians government turned to socialism, so would the person starting the anarchy revolution.
