Governance is always needed. Governments (the state) is nothing but a monopoly. A crime family if you will. This is the point of my post? Did you not get the point? Do I need to communicate differently?
I would love to see a much smaller state (government) but they tend to grow, not shrink.
I understood your point. Kindly understand my point. I'm not against your points.
What I want to say that I also hate government as much as you do. But, I don't understand how can governance be there without a government? There can be small decentralized government setups for smaller economies. These economies would set their rules and be ready to serve the people.

If you would like to understand I suggest you read the small book I linked in the original post. I think it is easiest to think about the separate functions a state government performs and try to think if they are already performed by private entities today. Most of these exist now or have in the past. This include the legal system as well as law enforcement / security services.
There is a wealth of thought and evidence on these topics on mises.org but Bob's book is a short easy read.
