May I interject here that around the globe, there is a universally recognized belief that some people get to rule and control the lives and property of others. This is the one great plague of this age. It is universally accepted, and it is wrong. Everything wrong with our world is rooted in this moral and intellectual failure. Imagine a world where it was otherwise.
After decades of considering the matter, I have simplified the matter thus: There should only be two considerations in all human affairs: 1 - Don't mess with other people and 2 - Don't mess with other peoples' stuff. Should this simple concept ever gain traction, perhaps a better system of things may be brought about.
Everything good needs to be planted somewhere. I plant this idea with you.
