[QUOTE="Conservationist:748265"]In a pluralistic society, achieving the consensus necessary for a central authority becomes difficult. Having an institution that accurately and fairly enforces that consensus is even more elusive. Further, most people want the organic type of society where agreement is forged and people act collaboratively. Institutional society makes its own conclusions, and then coerces the citizenry to obey them with reward and threat. Modern governments inevitably break down into tyranny because without that organic agreement, increasing numbers of their population deviate from the bureaucratic norms. A widening cycle of punishment and indoctrination occurs until the government is completely alienated from the people, and disorganized because it cannot attract good people. At that point, it collapses into authoritarianism. Pragmatism is a new concept in government. We suggest that government abandon its institutional role, and instead become a provider of services, and that we allow local organic communities to decide their own standards. In other words, government needs to get out of the morality and conformity enforcement business, and focus on the services we really need: protection from criminals, defense against other powers, and regulation of infrastructure like roads and water supplies. http://www.pragmatism.us/[/QUOTE]
