I have to agree with you that changing the statist status quo mindset is a difficulty approaching self-levitation. And, being honest, as a product of several of the systems in place today, there are certain transitions to the anarchic model that I am not comfortable with. While the anarchist model, as I understand it, is most consistent with individualism, most of my peers, elders, and friends aren't ready for it. The fear machines in politics and the media have done their work well. Modest moves toward the anarchist model, I fear, would be met, at present, with a militant response. My hesitations to fully embrace the model are based mostly on the timeline. It cannot happen quickly. Though perhaps it should; Here in the US our ability to embrace change has made us quite successful in adapting to the technological wonders emerging daily. But, some things that are changing a great deal more slowly; The god delusions, the grasp of altruism, the reach back to golden era memes, will be pain points for a long time. I guess that while I see the anarchist model as the most consistent of the 'thought collections' out there today - the majority of humans are going to need a godlike futurist to lead the way.
