Now, if you've followed me this far, you may have noticed that there's one combination which has never, in the history of the world, been tried. There are no outstanding examples of individualism applied to the political realm.
I agree with everything in your post sampled above. Actually I have come to the same conclusion, and I am teaching my children 5 and 7 to resolve their conflicts with this philosophy, and it starts with personal rights and the property they argue over every day, is immaterial, avoiding conflict is more to do with corporation that creating a property right to legitimise extortion. (all I do is mediate or threaten to create rules)
Hence my only divergence is I see the meme of property as the catalyst for the evolution of the State.
The first time I was exposed to the idea of democracy being superseded by individualising was reading Douglas Adams, while I can't find the lecture he gave he defined every form of governance by the communication technology of the time and predicted democracy's demise with the interactive communication of many to many enabled by the internet.
But 'interactive' makes for individual empowerment. Where the telephone is one-to-one communication and newspapers and television are one-to-many, the Internet is many-to-many." [\quote]
