That makes sense. Unfortunately, our current system seems to support almost unlimited centralization and this is the ideal kind of system for psychopathic power-hoarders. In the past, it was far less common for companies to grow to the point that they would dominate large parts of the economy. In essentially all cases, scale is achieved through illegal or at least highly unethical practices. Mega-corporations are not a natural part of capitalism; rather, they're the result of intentional system design and manipulation at the political/social layer. I think decentralization can go a long way to protect the system from power-hoarders. All things considered, it's probably better to have small groups, headed by many low-grade psychopaths, competing and even (on occasion) fighting each other for dominance rather than a single monolithic global empire headed by top-grade psychopaths. Also, I think if we could decouple political groups from geography, we would be able to protect ourselves from existential threats such as nuclear weapons. Nobody is going to risk nuking their own people in order to destroy an opposing group if they are all intermingled geographically.
