Donal: Do we want power? Do we respect power? Do we have a
healthy and sane take on these and other questions?
Since at any given moment of our lives each of us may have a
healthy or unhealthy "take" on power, and our institutions are
reflections of our own propensity for variability in this regard,
doesn't it make sense to avoid centralization of power whenever
possible?
If one's community goes mad with power, there are other
communities. Less conveniently, if one's nation goes mad with
power, there are other nations. But a globally centralized entity
gone power mad? Short of lunar or Martian colonies, where's the out?
