If you do that instantly you'd just have gangs become the new governments.
If you want to do it in a good way it must be done in steps. People need to be self reliant, self responsible, and have a good grasp of critical thinking for that situation to actually work.
That does not describe the majority of the population.
So we should push towards addressing that if that is our actual goal.
To push for it now is not rational or truly thought out.
I personally tend to try to make people start investigating and learning critical thinking since even the courses in college with it in the title tend to do a pretty poor job of actually getting people started in learning critical thinking. It is not something we can master, we can just get better and better at it. It is something I wish children would learn from an early age right beside reading, math, and history.
There in lies the whole problem does it not, that the "state" controls education, and does a very bad job of it.
For instance, in the UK my sister is a teacher, and she has been doing that for 20 years, the liberals in upper power state that spelling, whilst teaching English, is not to be judged, marked down for bad spelling, and effectively not taught, hence children leaving school as adults, and having no knowledge of spelling, welcome to the good old UK.
