We had the Best System of Government (Perfect Government) and we blew it:
1) Nomocracy (Rule of Law by Natural Law of Torts: Reciprocity)
2) A Hereditary Monarchy as Judge of Last Resort, and custodian of territory, institutions, organizations, families, and individuals.
…. A State(Foreign Relations) Organization,
…. A Professional Military,
…. A Professional Judiciary, and
…. A Treasury of Last Resort.
3) A Market for Commons consisting of:
…. Regional Nobility(Persistent families) serving as a normative Supreme Court
…. A House of Industry(Commons) for those with responsibilities.
…. A Church Serving as a House of Labor and family.
4) A Local (Democratic) Polity(private partnership) of Property Owners
…. A Militia and Sheriffs
…. Voluntary Civic Organizations
5) The Nuclear Family. And Family and Nation as subject of policy
6) The Individual and Property as the subject of law.
Really. You can’t do much better than that for a ‘steady state’. Because under war or stress the organization can switch from market rule to military rule (Fascism), and under plenty the organization can switch from market rule to (contingent and temporary) redistribution.
The central probelm with all forms of government is nothing more complex than the demographics of the polity. The larger the demonstrated underclass, the less effective a government and the more risk involved and the more limited are one’s options. The smaller the demonstrated underclass, the more effective a government and the less risk involved and the more plentiful (variable) are one’s options.
Market governments cause a natural eugenic change in the distribution, while creating the greatest adaptability, rate of innovation(competition) and highest standard of living.
But they require a militia or at least a dedicated military to bring into being.
