In principle I agree with everything Thoreau had to say in this work. But in practicality it probably wouldn't work. Thoreau was protesting against slavery and war, and in my opinion, was right on both points. But Thoreau also preached that anyone and everyone should disobey the government if there was anything at all in which they disagreed with it on. No government can act in a manner in which all it's citizens are always in agreement . Everyone has some difference of opinion with the government and if everyone refused to pay taxes and break whatever laws they chose to we'd wind up with chaos.

Thoreau wrote Civil Disobedience in 1849. It argues the superiority of the individual conscience over acquiescence to government. Thoreau was inspired to write in response to slavery and the Mexican-American war. He believed that people could not be made agents of injustice if they were governed by their own consciences.
