Decentralization describes my polticial philosophy pretty well. The challenge is: how?
Laissez-faire is a decent default, though obviously companies can cetralize power a lot.
Regulation seems reasonable, but it implicitly requires you to give some government power, and they tend to expand the scope of that power over time.
I think it's best when government is decentralized, and the smaller units of government can do what they want; while something as big as the US givernment would be highly constrained.
Allowing individual, smaller governments to regulate makes it harder for companies to take over. But if the government amasses too much power, you just move a few towns over.
