It is a tough subject that i have poured much thought into. I don't know how the wild west would have operated but I think it might have been very tribal at that point in history.. I don't know if a return of tribalism is of any benefit going forward but a resolution would have to be reached amongst society. Tribalism would become the on set of a new era of feudalism in my opinion.

I totally agree that it is looking like a situation where an oligarchical class would be completely gone is not in the cards. I think technology has put us on a knifes edge where tough decisions need to be answered. The land allocation pales in comparison to what happens to nuke bombs and nuke plants... How would that become managed as a decentralized society. Technology might be the shackles that we cannot shed...
