Fiscal insolvency and political polarization
My thinking is that political polarization is pushing people more towards distinct poles (red vs blue), rather than causing people to splinter into a million different belief systems.
Of course there are lots of sub-groups, but it feels like most tribes fit neatly into red or blue narratives these days.
You're right, so far. Polarization is highly bipolar.
Still, that drives urban-rural divides and could lead to cities wanting more autonomy from their surroundings.
This is the key division: rural vs urban
There are no blue states only blue cities
drones

drones are cheaper than security guards and can be deployed much like private security.
I think when towns are able to protect themselves, they will elect to do so.
What do you think will compel today's countries to break apart?
