I provide a RANGE of solutions for different people (which is my job) and an OPTIMUM solution for OUR people. So it is sometimes confusing to readers which I’m talking about.

In other words while there is a perfect government, under normal conditions we must provide sufficient flexibility so that we can celebrate windfalls and suffer wars.

Utopia is for children who wish to avoid the burden of calculation (reasoning as an adatpation to change). To some degree a perfect government provides predictability and adaptability as do markets when subject to pressures of plenty or scarcity. And thereby reduces the burden of calculation of adaptation. And even better, insurance such that it can, by prohibition on rents, and debts (which can be a form of rent), afford to adapt.
