Đề bài:
Society is based on rules and laws. It could not function if individuals were free to do whatever they wanted to do. To what extent do you agree or not?

Bài viết:
It is generally understood that society is held up by the rules and laws made by people. Nevertheless, some people think that society could still properly function even if its members could do anything they desired without fearing the legal consequences. I wholeheartedly disagree as I support the idea that a civilized society would descend into anarchy when individuals are entirely free to do whatever they want.
There are several immediate adverse effects of this kind of situation. First, people will be less concerned about others, and their decisions would be more motivated by self-interest. Furthermore, knowing that they cannot be punished by the law for their actions, many people will only become more brazen over time, eventually attempting to satisfy their primal instincts no matter what. Greed, rage, and lust are three clear examples that can result in morally reprehensible behaviour should people’s decisions ever become unchecked in society. For instance, a company can sell faulty yet cheaply produced merchandise to customers in order to increase their profit margin when consumer protection laws are not in place, or a maniac can murder someone on the road for making him angry and still get away afterwards.
To make matters worse, such a situation will encourage malicious people to claim power and coerce others for their gains. Self-styled and local “lords” will arise, recruiting followers using both promises of order and threats of violence. As a result, the current society would stop existing and instead regress into brutal conflicts among powers fighting for control. Ultimately, these conflicts may spread, and humanity’s fate will hang in the balance. In their quest for power, such self-proclaimed leaders would sacrifice their supporters, pushing humankind to extinction with the abundance of murderous tools. Hence, the absence of the rule of law should never occur so that we will not face our eradication as a species.
In conclusion, the consequences of a situation where people in society are unrestricted in their actions are bleak. That is why every reasonable individual should understand the necessity of having rules and try their best to maintain the laws of society.
