That sounds good in practice, but I doubt there will ever be a shortage of mercenaries and officials who would use force to extract tribute.

US revolution could not have succeeded but for the long supply chain the Brits had. It was a one time aberration in human history. Won’t happen again. Thugs roule the world, for the most part, and our government has the best thugs of all.

Agree, and without the French, even the revolution back then would have been hopeless.
