Gustave, You needn't worry yourself about innovation if they best you can do is gainsay my remarks by paraphrasing my comments back at me. In any event, you can give up on the idea of utopia. There isn't any. We are only given the choice of picking the lesser of evils. Your hope for an Anarchist government is hopeless. Anarchy, as a system of government, has never, to my knowledge, ever actually existed as a working stable entity. Communism in it's purest form made the same mistake that you are making now. The idea that people will work exclusively for the common good without desire for remuneration or material reward. The Soviets failed, the East European bloc failed; and Cuba and North Korea are basket cases. Even the Chinese are going quasi-captalist. Deep down you know all this. Since anarchy is unrealizable all that is left for you is to find criticism of the US. It's a pity you can't find an ally better than Sadaam Hussein, your credibility might improve somewhat. The USA has an existing working system, not perfect, but capable of being improved. It has survived the turmoil of the 19th and 20th centuries. Rest assured, in spite of Enron and the rest, we will survive the 21st century as well. In the meantime, you will continue to wait for your fist Anarchic government. You will have a long wait.
