In many ways, a false statement offense is considered a victimless crime, but in which, society at large becomes the victim.

Should victimless crimes be free from governmental interference?

Yes, victimless crimes should be free from governmental interference. The answer flows naturally from the answer to the question: "What is the proper role of government?" In the United States, the original role of government was to protect the individual liberty and freedom of the individual. In a victimless crime, no individual is impeding the liberty and freedom of another individual. Thus, the government should have no liberty/freedom interest to protect and should be indifferent to the "crime." Unfortunately, the government has transformed into an opposite role--that of mandating that the individual behave in accordance with the way that government thinks the individual ought to behave. Therefore, enforcement of laws against victimless crimes is a rejection of individual liberty and freedom and an acceptance of fascism/totalitarianism. In a "victimless crime," the government believes the individual has violated the government's ideal behavior. Indeed, when the government punishes an individual for committing a victimless crime, the only true victim is the individual, who has been punished.
