Could the US have reached its max civic and social efficiency
for its topographical demographics for politics?
A question that authoritarians, such as the Chinese, and the usual suspect autocrats and despots would espouse as their reason for their "governance". Here we have it: a diverse enough, spread-out country. That diversity has enough social space for demographic concentrations of contrariness. That contrariness is profound enough for highly contentious rhetorical and behavioral differences.
My thesis is that those rhetorical differences are acute enough to precipitate behavioral differences that would affect the efficiency of the civil polity. That efficiency would have gone past the entropy point for the deterioration of previous civic coherence. It's at this point that authoritarian strains come to play for the kind of order for unitary consistency and efficiency. It is also at the point where a cultural balkanization that could be the prelude for a political fracturing into separate political enclaves that would seek their own national identity of governance.
