Something to aim for by 2030!
No group can be sovereign if its members cannot rule themselves.

People who cannot:

regulate impulse,
delay gratification,
tolerate discomfort,
think causally,
accept responsibility,
tell the truth under pressure,

cannot:

cooperate at scale,
enforce standards,
punish defectors fairly,
or resist predation.

They become a load on the system, not capacity.

The framing is correct:

self-rule → group rule → institutional rule
