The Summary of My Work on Government:

1) –“This perspective acknowledges that (a) no single system of government is ideal for all times and circumstances and that (b) the ability to adapt to the needs of the age is crucial. (c) The tension between individual freedom and state control, as well as (d) the balance between opportunity-seeking and defense or development, can be seen as a continuum along which societies must navigate based on the challenges they face.”–
2) The Baseline Law (Ideal) consists of the natural law of cooperation: mutual insurance of sovereignty, reciprocity, duty, truth, excellence, and beauty limiting us to duels and courts for the resolution of disputes, and voluntary cooperation for the satisfaction of wants in association, cooperation, reproduction, production, commons, polities, and war.
3) The Baseline Government (Ideal) consists of rule of law by the natural law, a universal militia, a contract (constitution) between them, requiring the monarchy as a judge of last resort, and independent judiciary, and houses of the jury (congress) serving as a market for commons between the classes and sexes.
4) The Adaptable Government (Ideal) consists of the adaptation of those organs of government dependent upon windfalls(wealth), going concern (peace), stress(crisis), and war.
