I believe that government is necessary for many different reasons. One reason is because government creates laws that citizens have to abide by, in order to create a peaceful society. By definition government is an institution through which a society makes and enforces public policies. The correlation here is that government is made to look out for the people. According to the Preamble, the government is to promote general welfare and without government people would be poorer because of no restrictions on the economy. Another reason government is necessary is too look out for the common good of the people. In most governments around the world, whoever has the majority usually can decide what laws will be made. Even though you could argue that government is necessary or not, I believe that government is necessary.
