A service based government is a fascinating concept…I mean, the !Kung! (can’t get it right on this keyboard!) do not have a force based government, but they are a tiny group, and it also was not ‘service based,’ either. But that’s logically how it could best ‘serve the people’ and do it’s reputed job, is to be coming from that angle. For instance, why is it that the roads here aren’t built the same way that the Romans built theirs? Admittedly, they didn’t have trucks, etc., like we do, so maybe they wouldn’t last for 1000’s of years now, but even 20 or 50 years would be an improvement…what I mean is, to have a governing body that looks at the problem, then searches for the best, already known solution, then builds on that–rather than constantly trying to reinvent the wheel–and constantly falling short! Anyway, it’s an exciting idea, and a workable one.
