Something very different is definitely coming in the next decade. Too much going on in the cryptocurrency space that is borderless and censorship resistant to keep most of the rest of the world down. In 1776 the USA declared independence from Britain, now it seems we're the new England. The world will declare independence from us through a giant equity drain in crypto and the banks will not be able to hold together their system of financial exclusion.
The dismantling that Adam Kokesh talks about will come more naturally because of the above circumstances.

You have missed the articles about the banks buying huge amounts of crypto currency? You really think people who are worth more than the USA and China combined, cannot take over?
Do you really think governments will not also take over - and demand you declare what you have so that they can tax you? You do not disclose? Have fun thinking of your crypto currency while a pricelss part of your life flows away from you. Of course, governments are already doing so - and people are making their declarations.
I'll say again: make plans, build a theory, that can withstand all that is thrown against it.
A final scenario:What good will your theories, crypto-currencies, refusal to have a government and so on do you, once they have filled your body and brain with smart dust.
Hi, fellow robot.
What was it in the above paragraph that triggered you and set you off? I'm only stating facts and history shows that governments are much more fragile than nature and natural law.
Personal threats are useless against me (my days are numbered anyway). I'm just glad that future generations will live to see a chance for freedom again instead of the totalitarian panopticon being generated as an alternative.
It was not a personal threat, it was a warning of what they are planning to do to all of mankind.
I presume you do know what smart dust is? If not, rsearch for it, it is being developed by HP (the guys who make calculators, computers etc). It is nano technology and they claim the smart dust can be triggered so that we obey, just like robots.
I'm in the last of my years, but I do not take a fatalistic attitude, because I love our specie and want to die knowing that we will survive - and also expand to other solar systems, so that one calamity can no longer wipe us out.
I partly reject your ideas because I do not believe we can grow out into space if there are no gigantic sources of funding. Once we are spread out and inhabit a dozen planets, then if people on one of them want to try out the idea of not having a gov, fine let them, for if the flaws are then seen and they need help, there will still be other colonies to a) survive them and, maybe, b) help them.
