Hot take: give up on the government. Kind of like quiet quitting but on a national scale.

Centralized authority has done all that it can do for humanity and it's time to drop it like a stage off a rocket.

When Rome fell, areas that had strong local cohesion and means to facilitate commerce and order were massively less effected than areas that did not and could not.

Some such areas were actually better off and more free after roman collapse than before.

Hint hint.
