But governments are unique in the use and concentration of power. There's no doubt corporations take on a government-like power structure but a person can quit a corporation, a person cannot quit their government.

A person can, and often does, quit his government. It's called emmigration.
You have to be attractive enough to the government u liek better, but that's open market, just make yourself presentable. I did.

Do you think government IS society? I don't.

What made you assume that i do? That's crazy talk.
Government is government, society is society, two distinctly different words with distinctly different meanings.
You're right to not confuse the two. We're good here.

Yeah, no. Developing economic models is tough. Getting a lot of data from different countries and finding the casual relationships (through government reports that are probably lies) could take a long time. It might be fun though. Wink

In other words, u see no extant alternative?
