What are the best books to read for figuring out the best form of government? I've been reading C4SS's stuff, and reading some Unqualified Reservations (he advocates a completely non-democratic government, which is kind of interesting because it never occurred to me that democracy might bad... I don't believe him yet, but it's still interesting to consider) and Locke and Hobbes and... I'm just not sure. I've thought this before, but there might not be a perfect form of government. Maybe humanity forever spirals into different forms of government until some form of post-scarcity is reached, and then government is relatively unnecessary because humanity will have nothing to fight over because they have everything they could possibly want. Or maybe not. You certainly seem to have settled on Marxism (anarchist syndicalism). I don't know, I find it farfetched that anarchy could ever work due to several of the arguments given over at Unqualified Reservations (namely that if there's an absence of power, something will fill it).
