I do agree with 'fix the money, fix the world', but I think the tendency to desire government to take responsibility will not be fixed.
What will be fixed is merely the government's ability to have power too far beyond what is required to execute the responsibility it takes on.
To truly be rid of government is cultural and there's no environmental pressure that would disincentivize government, even if money is fixed.
We've had governments for 6000-8000 years now, long before fiat banking 500 years ago. My hope is that once we fix the money the world will be free to organize local communities around any culture, religious or secular, corporate or cooperative, anarchist and self sufficient or communist.
However, heirarchical states and their militiaries and corporations are just too good at managing resources and directing effort. I don't currently see a realistic alternative. It's really not feasible to do what I previously suggest, to take all the responsibilities back and do the work as an individual.
You'd never 'gain' in the market, competing with the big corporate/national machines, so you'd run out of resources and then go bankrupt. You have to coordinate and organize as a union, cooperative or government around your cultural identity, and then you're back to the same old games.
