gollark: The current system, whatever you label it, works fairly well. There are definitely problems. So many problems. Also lots of room for significant improvements without getting rid of it all. But it works decently well without requiring everyone to magically get along fine and the world is steadily increasing in prosperity.
gollark: If your thing only works for self-selected small groups, then it's hardly a good way to organize... our whole global societies comprising 7 billion people, quite a lot of whom don't like each other.
gollark: I just don't think it would actually work at current global scales or for probably most people.
gollark: Great!
gollark: I mean, I'd happily support anarchists being allowed to test how well things work for a self-selected group on some mostly unused land.
