And let’s say 95% of people act civilly, but 5% of the population is extremely greedy. How do you limit the greedy from drinking all the ale and not contributing to the community?
Well the example I gave was literally during the time of feudalism so in that society you didn’t. I’m a social sciencentist but I don’t have all the answers as, like you pointed out, bad actors are typically a minority which hijackes the society they are in. I don’t think we need to know everything to make a better world, we should start with what we can. If you or I ever find a definitive answer I hope we share that with everyone we can.
That’s a noble goal. This is basically the biggest argument against collectivism. If you don’t have even a framework for addressing it I doubt you will get much support for your ideas.
