Does De-Centralized Government Power Promote Freedom, Liberty, and Innovation?

By Brenden Wilson


The other day, I was talking with an acquaintance from France. It appears we were both lovers of freedom, liberty, and the fruits of free of charge-industry capitalism. As we got to talking, we began to talk about centralized governments, and how all nations could join together in peace and prosperity, it was an fascinating and enlightening conversation, and I'd like to share it with you if I may well. Okay so, let's speak. My acquaintance stated

"I am not personally a centralized government type, as I believe in personal and local self-guidance, but standardization of systems are essential for trade, and keeping the peace, a frequent set of laws worldwide does makes sense in lots of regards. The challenge is how to get there taking into consideration the diversity of culture."

Well spoken indeed, and he did mention standardizing of systems, and that would entail laws too appropriate? So, what of Standardization - definitely that too promotes trade, commerce, and exchange of culture, suggestions, items, and ideas correct?

In order to do that, we need to have some sort of centralized authority, regardless of whether it is a powerful central government hovering over the states, or no matter whether it is a powerful European Union with a centralized over-structure. Interestingly enough, the United States when it was founded was supposed to have pretty robust state rights, and a really weak central government. Over time, it appears that the federal government has grown, and the bureaucracy has now been blown out of proportion.

Sadly, this is clogging the system, and it is creating the states and their different regions fairly upset, as it is dictating how persons will reside at the neighborhood level. When we start off carrying out that, we immediately impede upon cultural differences, religious belief systems, and we do not offer for regional variation for items such as weather, pollution, sector, education, jobs, education, and economic conditions.
