Hence, friendships and kinships actually tend to be rather strong, far stronger, actually, than would be warranted by actual similarities. And there will likely be police, perhaps lots of them, assuming the society has been around a long time. Old West gunslingers point to the need for police in a chaotic society. But they don't cite the manual. They tend to say, "So, what seems to be the problem here?" And the judges tend to say things like, "We have only three laws around here. What's yours is yours, what's mine is mine, and what's nobody's business isn't." Power is likely very distributed. But where it does concentrate, that person has great latitude. Most 20th century dictatorships tend to be CN in nature, based as they are on the will of one individual, right or wrong. A lawful society is a land of "laws, not men." Chaos is the opposite, a land of men, not laws.Wild capitalism often exists in such a society, but at any time, a dissatisfied segment might rebel and socialize, distribute, or simply ransack a given source of wealth.</blockquote>
