Anarchy and libertarianism are for a civilized species.

[J603]

Humanity is not a civilized species. It is numerous rabid packs of wild primates who happen to be able to build tools and speak eloquently. In times of conflict, they resort to a pecking order, a pack -- just like wolves and many other mammals.

Humans are mostly socially simplistic. They usually focus on and live for social status and mating. The adventurous who are driven to profit through innovation and higher purpose either make their way to the top of the pack, or are shunned by those above them and by the collective whom follows.

This species is a volatile experiment. It is heavily monitored and looked upon and rightly quarantined from the rest of the galactic community. In fact, it is an outright miracle you guys haven't blown yourself up like the Maldek and the people of Mars, the former is the oblivion known as the Asteroid belt. This entire solar system has had numerous failures of this kind.

You guys are doing much better. However, it is foreseen that the next 300 years don't have much hope. This planet will likely no longer suit your kind. It was lovely while it lasted.

And right there is where the crazy started.

I don't know how people get off painting anarchy as some sort of utopian vision requiring a perfect man.

Anarchy is simply coming to the realization that no centralized system has the knowledge or technology capable of accurately determining the correct decision makers for all particular fields of study or geographical locations.

The best that Technocrats could do is best facilitate the allocation of resources toward some predetermined heuristics, but since people have arbitrary preferences, the Technocrats inevitably end up supporting the will of a select few oligarchs over the desires of anyone else.

Therefore, the only rational thing to do is to let people, freely exchanging among themselves, determine how resources are allocated. Sweeping general needs will be met, but more beautifully, small niche fields are developed to cater to the desires of minorities, something that you will never see in any form of governing other than anarchy.

But anyway, the paradox that these people never want to face is that if mankind can not be trusted to govern themselves, then why should a select group of men be trusted to govern everyone else?
