As usual I hear the selfish/individualistic ring of (right-wing?) "capitalism" in your statement above. The unforgiving reality though is that "no man is an island". We (humans) are social animals/beings. We live our lives thus, communally (via collective reciprocity).
Further,...why would you need to insert the caveat of governmental violence to achieve any social good (as with controlling excessive carbon emissions)? I guess such stance/(threatening use of violence) represents the desperate realities of fascism and Stalinist communism
