Self-management societies vs anarcho-capitalism: the new global war of ideologies?
Cultural self-management? On what scale? For how long?
Isn't that what we call a society, and a culture?
Both work until they don't. Then they don't work ... until they do.
It's a collective policy choice.
So, how do cultures and/or mobs actually MAKE group assessments? Through their group discourse methods, of course. Those too, are policy choices.
Are enough US citizens turning to sane, group intelligence methods, and thereby to Democracy - to save US from ourselves?
How would 315 million people even know, soon enough? You know, before self-management tolerance limits are relegated to barriers exceeded 10 contexts back?
"Oh, you mean THAT 'Bridge Out' sign! Oops. :) We bad!"
How do 315 million people even assess whether they are or aren't making a cultural policy decision?
Group momentum - stirred up by some Control Fraud - is easily and always causing groups to lurch about, triggering by default group-reflex decisions ... which the group as a whole only becomes aware of later on.
"NSA, can you trace our last 157 Million messages ... and tell us where the hell we are? And where we're going?"
"No? Well, thanks for giving it the too-old, outdated, un-affordable college try ... gramps."
Welcome to the fusion of democratic self-Command & self-Control nightmares with the Fog of Culture!
Ever seen a whole, national culture exhibiting the symptoms of a cultural huntington's-chorea? A Culturington's Hyperchorea? It's not a pretty sight, regardless of what it looks like before symptoms become visible.
Have OUR cultural institutions - no longer suitable for our changed context - already doomed the USA to a cultural Dance of Death?
The good news is that WE CAN ADJUST our flawed cultural-gene methods. The bad news is there's no guarantee that we WILL! Only if we choose to act, before the national dance descends from cultural agility into the national jerk or Middle Class Break dance that triggers excessive head-honcho banging, rampant injuries, lost generations, and loss of cultural life and states.
The National Robot Dance? That's for slow, stiff, Central Planners. The only cultural dance that's ever sustained features cultural agility.
