    It does make a lot of sense though.

    It must be hard to form any society if all you do is hunt and gather and have no meaningful surplus.

    Also I wouldn’t say that it’s a problem with inequality even if technically true. Society, centralization and teamwork of humanity has benefited our species immensely. I think that’s more important than “well technically it might be more inequality”.

    Inequality is absolutely bad but we can’t simply ignore everything else that happened since.

      Just because something makes sense doesn’t make it true. That is why I included the source which argues the point. Also, I am saying it might not be true. Honestly, I would more than happy to find a way to organise a govt that doesn’t involve trusting politicians or bureaucrats or dictators. The best place to find would be in the past, when the human societies might have experimented with ways to organise a govt.

        Am not saying you are wrong or right, just that the commonly accepted theory makes a lot of sense.

          Yes, it does make a lot of sense. Though, I will be happy if it gets proven wrong.
