Catch-22 Chunk #6

By the end of the book Yossarian is even more paranoid and decides to walk backwards that way no one can sneak up on him from behind. Also Yossarian refuses to participate in anymore missions. Yossarian refuses to go into combat at this time because his dear friend Nately had just died. Once Coloniel Cathcart and Coloniel Korn are notified of Yossarians choice they feel pity on him because of Nately's death and decide to send him to Rome in order to rest. Once in bad news Rome Yossaran breaks the news to Nately's whore and she tries to kill him for bringing her such bad news. As for Nately's sisters she is at first ok but then turns and tries to kill Yossarian also. Yossarian shows up at the Red Cross building with multiple stab wounds and once he exits the building Nately's whore is there waiting for him to stab him once again. She follows him everywhere but, finally he retaliates and flies her to a distant location and drops her off the plane with a Parachute. He still walks backwards to not allow people to attack him, and once word gets out that he refuses to fly people begin to approach him to ask him if its a fact. Once he tells them that its true they tell him that they hope he gets away with it.

Yossarian travels to Rome with Milo who is disappointed with his decision to not fly anymore. Then tells him that Rome had been bombed and all of it is in ruined. Also that the apartment where the bimbos used to live is destroyed, Yossarian finds the old lady who owned the building and she told them that the only right that the soldiers had to kick the girls out was the right called Catch 22. Which means that they have a right to do anything we cant stop them from doing.

Question: Catch 22 means that " they have the right to do anything we cant stop them from doing" what if our world as of now used this ? What would our world be like ?
