"if the government is bad, then that's a clear sign that society is bad too"
Politics attracts sociopaths, narcissists and egoistic individuals. Individuals that are focused on competency most likely not survive in this predatory environment thus not reflecting common society.
I'm not calling for abolishing government, just for change of thinking about governance and abandoning individual responsibility to the institutionalized electorate.
ok, that sounds more reasonable. changing of how to think about governance is quite different from rejecting any form of governance. i agree that rethinking is necessary.
politics is different from governance. it currently looks the same because politics controls current governments. what i believe needs to happen is the removal of politics. to develop a system of governance that is neutral and free of politics.
please elaborate what you mean by individual responsibility to the institutionalized electorate.
Idea of giving our responsibilities to politics by voting for them and let them later decide what we should/shouldn't do loks wrong to me. Centralised planning is more or less compromise of mixed ideas that at the end do not satisfy democratic majority. Look how many minorities scream about their rights. It just a consequence of writen above.
Decentralisation of power, like principle of subsidiary, looks like a way.
Also... Law do not educate society about consequences of our actions. You probably don't drive on red light due to threat of fines, fo you?
