But financial institutions and banks are now creating their own blockchains so I guess government wont end.

I guess the end of governments is every person's individual matter. I choose not to be governed and thus to me governments no longer exist. If enough people did it, that would become a cold hard reality.

really? Who collects your bins, provides your local police force, paves the streets and runs any streetlamps? Or who pays the people who do those things?

You are governed whether you delude yourself into thinking otherwise or not.

don't fool yourself into thinking that these services are actually the reason why we absolutely need governments. people can easily do these things themselves and free market would provide supply wherever there is demand. be it street pavements or lamps, does not matter.

Of course... but for now, you are governed, if you like it or not. Thats just how a government rolls, they don't asks for your permission, they just take the money and provide you with services you might want. (owh and of course we all know who is really benefiting from all these government services..... the government herself)
