I was wondering what everyone thought was the most efficient form of government. Emphasis on "efficient". So:

What government do you think is the most efficient?

Why?

I was also wondering what everyone thought was the best overall form of government.

What government do you think is the best overall?

Why?

After seeing a few posts I'll answer the questions above.

This only has to be discussed because monopolies on the security of liberty naturally allow for inefficiency.

A country with minimal bureaucracy.

Why?

Cuts down costs and makes things simpler.

Government elected through proportional representation. One that protects the rights of a person as based on their constitution.

Urr..becuase it's what the governments should do.

Why?

Why not?

Or the adding of too much liberty also decrease the efficiency of government.

Oh, you can choose whatever factors you want that create government efficiency.

None.

Why?

The free market is the most efficient system known to man. The state is a negation of the free market, regardless of what degree it plans to negate it to.

What government do you think is the best overall?

None.

Why?

Previous reason + it not only necessitates no violence, but has less violence.

Empire

Why?

Because you don't have to go through all the stupid debates that take place in a democracy. You're word is law and no one can question it.

I was also wondering what everyone thought was the best overall form of government.

What government do you think is the best overall?

There is none.

Why?

Because all governments are put in place to take rights away from the people.
