Brief note on political design

When we think about government we instinctively assume there will be only one unified government and that all functions will be concentrated into this single entity. It's assumed that all other governments will be unified under a single government, such as state and local being unified under federal. But what if this is the wrong design? What if what we need is multiple governments that have nothing to do with each other, that are not unified in any way? Multiple competing governments could be a disaster but if excellently designed could be superior to any unified form. 

The form of government that is best at upholding rights enforcement, for example, it's not the best form of government for producing services. A democracy is probably best for the productive aspects of government: water and trash utilities, building roads and bridges, delivering healthcare, operating ports, steel foundries and state owned businesses, but a monarchy is probably best for making laws since without the need for donations the king has no reason to favor industries. An assassination market which operates like a crowd-sourced Supreme Court, determining if leaders violated a Bill of Rights and then allowing the market to purchase contracts to eliminate them when they do, is undoubtedly the most accessible system for rights enforcement. Some sort of Dark Bill of Rights which specifically sanctions assassination because undoubtedly that is the best way to keep government in line. So let's think about this;

1. Productive government functions — roads, bridges, ports, healthcare, state owned companies — "consumer owned government," elected by the people.

2. Regulatory functions — unelected hereditary monarchy — unbiased, uncorruptible, never takes donations, a predator that preys on the corrupt and powerful by killing them and selling off their assets.

3. Rights enforcement — assassination market, constitutionally sanctioned vigilantism — The Dark Bill of Rights, only adjudicates when rights have been violated, keeps the other two in line.

And of course 

4. The free market — non-governmental production economy — consumer votes with their dollars.

Number 1 is democratic because dictatorships historically have underperformed on building infrastructure and meeting the needs of the population. 

Number 2 is monarchical to insulate the lawmaking process from financial corruption. 

Number 3 is a system of constitutionally sanctioned vigilantism and market because pure Supreme Courts are inaccessible to ordinary people and subject to political manipulation.
