Many Independent Centers of Power
As an American citizen, I prefer a government that permits and enables a freedom-loving, constitutionally-based society. I prefer it for one reason only--because it works better than anything else. It releases the energy, enthusiasm, and effort of thousands of people to build businesses and commercial networks to create wealth. A freedom-loving society releases man's potential.
In a manner of speaking, a freedom-loving society answers a primordial call-of-nature in people to create and rule their own turf, build castles, and create private, exclusive social networks. In Medieval times, leaders thirsted for conquest and plunder. A modern freedom-loving society channels that destructive energy into a more civilized, creative endeavors, inasmuch as modern man just substitutes employees for soldiers, modern, commercial techology in the place of weapons, and money in the place of war-booty.

Governments only have to allow such a society to happen. Based on the American result, I have to wonder why more of the world does not follow the free-society model? It is not perfect, but it provides—something most of the World's nations have not done—and produces the best results of any nation.

The actions of thousands of business-builders result in many independent centers of power on the American landscape. The functioning of those commercial centers has to follow the rules set up to protect the public and to satisfy compliance-type bureaucrats.
Otherwise, they differ from one another, developing corporate personalities as unique as the autocratic, driven men and women who create them.
