The human race has developed under a fusion of freedom and strict policies, but between the two, humanity has undoubtedly thrived from an increased effort to preserve law and order.
Literature has shown numerous times that humans need law and order. An important example is William Golding’s Lord of the Flies. In this novel, a plane crash leaves a group of British boys stranded on an island. One of the first things they realize is that they have absolute freedom. This new sense of freedom, the ability to do whatever they want, corrupts them and eventually leads them to a chaotic state. This transition is caused by human nature. As philosopher Thomas Hobbes once said, men love liberty and dominion over others. Every human wants to be on top. This, however, cannot be achieved by every person. This is best stated by a quote from Disney’s Incredibles, “Everyone can have powers. Everyone can be Super! And when everyone's Super…no one will be.” In the end, not all humans can have dominion over others. As a result, humanity must work to preserve their other desire, liberty, and the only way we can ensure liberty is to have a set of rules that restrict us from infringing on another’s.
Humans require law and order way more than they need freedom. In fact, without law and order, not only would humans lack freedom, but we would also reverse 10,000 years of development and become the very beings we call primitive.
