    Also push for space colonization, because we need a frontier in order for people to truly choose societies.

    We have multiple governments one can choose to live under, but it’s a finite number so they can form a cartel and fix the negotiating terms.

    Like, if someone doesn’t like a law that permits total surveillance, they can move to another place that doesn’t have it … unless they all have it.

    As the world becomes more tightly integrated into a single power structure, the “marketplace of competition” between legal systems goes away.

    So we need to have a world where if a person isn’t getting more out of society than it’s costing them, they can choose to go start a new one with fewer resources but more freedom.
