I was reading the link you send me ,I have encounterd this
Most of their revenue goes to warfare and welfare, which are destructive.I get the first part but the second part implying that welfare is destructive ,I don't get that,But really it was a good read ,interesting perspective . A stateless future ,the collapse of nations-state .But basically he saying eventually we will split apart and form kind of tribe not related by blood or the same ethnic group but ratgr we group together by the people how like the same values/mindset.I'm little conflicted about where I stand regarding this topic.He says some interesting stuff ,
A phyle could exercise far more control over its members than any government today is able to do.that doesn't sound tempting
and this
There would be phyles of all types, including those that value strict control, regimentation, and limitationsSo it's highly likely there is a phyle that doesn't have any contact with the outside world and only the ringleaders will be the only source of information for them .I would want to think what religious figut=rs would do in their on phyle.Stricter control even some punsihment and wasn't possible before the creation of the phyles. A big no no against a splinter humanity. I prefer it more centralized ,altough it could use some improvements .
Btw I have Raid: Redemption , It was literary one of the best movies I have watched .I was watching that movies ,there was so much action ,I thought the film is ending but no I wasn't even half way.I will watch the sequel as soon as possible. Force nature characters ,the fighting was amazing.You know there was one liite scene bugging me ,The dirty cop/luitenant when he had the big boss of the flat at his custody ,that bigboss was uncessary provoking him , while the better option would have been stall time until he got the right opportunity . That may have saved his life
Welfare is like medicine. It is needed at extreme situations. But when we build nation where welfare is a big part of it we are basically making something similar to a medical industrial complex that make people sick to sell them new drugs. The only way a civilization can be built is by consuming less than we produce and saving the difference and investing those savings wisely. When welfare is a last resort, it's like treating an illness (which isn't normal). When welfare is an integral part of the society it waste resources and takes away he incentive for people to be productive. If 1984 about surveillance run amok Atlas Shrugged is welfare run amok. Give it a read or watch the first movie.
Vít Jedlička (President of the Free Republic of Liberland) said that the goal of Liberland is to take over the world and leave people alone. Phyles having control can go both ways. They are much like cryptos. Some phyles would enforce privacy and freedom to a level where taking socialism/fascism/surveillance seriously is considered treason while others turn into fascist states.
