Then you can't have any government, or really, any meaningful social interaction.

All democratic governments are built on the assumption they'll be acted upon in good faith, because without good faith, no cooperation or society is possible. All a society is is a group of people either working together in good faith.

If you want to go off and live by the law of the jungle, then by all means, go ahead. But the rest of us will move on without you.
