Solution: market of govts ie patchwork

This is basically the
#NRx exit idea. We know that government will happen, but we also understand governments have their failure modes. -
We can encourage better governance by pushing power down to many little states--competition can result in better governments, too.
-
Obviously we can talk about the next level of multipolar traps in international relations, but those aren't as large as the internal ones.
-
You get the fundamental problem right (problem of cooperation, aka generalized prisoner's dilemma), but that's not a solution.
-
A patchwork of states is not a market. The market depends on the state to enforce laws. No state, no market.
-
I can agree re market of govts, but at least with options and competition the overall trend should be toward better governments
