How is the CEO chosen? I assume it’s likely via board members, who may get input from shareholders. In practice, it will distill into a democratic process, so is that the intent? Overall, this sounds similar to how the Roman senate chose its emperors, which didn’t work out quite that well, which is why people leaned into democracy. But besides that, and maybe I need to read the book, but this doesn’t seem to answer why the governed should agree to any social contracts and be governed in this manner. There needs to be a discussion about liberal ideology and all it encompasses, including the left sides of the spectrum which can get quite grating on some discourse. But I am unconvinced that any enlightenment the world needs next needs to be flavored darkly.
