    If those were the only two options, obviously not. But I think you know damn well that’s not reality.

      Sure, there are other options. Name a better one.

          Even that would devolve into a hierarchy. Someone will want power. It’s happened before.

            Where and when? All the instances I have heard about have been attacked by external powers, not taken over from within.

              Sure but there was always someone (or a sect of someone’s) “in charge” calling the shots.

        Raising minimum wage or putting a social safety net in place so we have no working homeless or unfed children.

          I don’t disagree but this is a band-aid. I am not sure that there is a political or economic philosophy in place today (at least in the US) prepared or willing to deal with homeless or hunger properly. We get a lot of politispeak about doing this or that that effectively translates to nothing.
