True! So, better governing systems for a union, no?

You can’t get rid of power, just redistribute it. As flawed as democracy is, that’s what it attempts to do.

Or do we want to get rid of governments? ;)

In that case I’ll happily make the same snarky comment about whatever collection of humans accrue and then abuse power in our new government-free society.

People are naturally social. There will always be power, wielded in one way or another. But we have and will figure out schemes to wield it in a to benefit the many more than the few.
