This question is very ambiguous. What constitutes a government failure? That is up to the reader to choose I suppose. To answer the question should it be allowed, I say yes. If the government fails to meet its people’s basic human needs such as food water and shelter I believe in fear of your own life and others around you it seems like a good last resort attempt to get what you need. In most cases I would say no but if something is threatening your or other human beings lives, then yes do what you have to do to survive.
