I just don't think there's going to be a great awakening, here, where everyone's priority becomes to be as self-sovereign as possible. Back in my AnCap days, I convinced myself that people would all reach this conclusion once the contradictions of the system played out. I no longer think that. I think the modern state can exist in a state of contradictions, adapting to shocks and cultural changes, in perpetuity. It doesn't ever have to reconcile down to a self-consistent model. It just has to maintain an ability to adapt.

I think "maintaining the ability to adapt" has limits. The shocks that hit the system COULD all be small enough to stay within those adaptation limits. Or not.
