| Jul 26, 2018 at 1:13 | comment | added | Thorne | Which is exactly what I said. The form of government becomes important when it all goes badly. The form of government defines the processes for the removal of problems. | |
| Jul 26, 2018 at 1:00 | comment | added | Kilisi | maybe very short term, but many forms of government are inherently unstable for many reasons. Total anarchy is fine so long as everyone behaves themselves. Stability is about having processes, protocols etc,. in place to maintain long term. | |
