I say this because it might reduce the insanity of war in many forms, such as direct physical conflict and the more subtle economic hitman type conflicts, which lead to the same ends, human suffering.

Absolutely agree - The only social economic system consistent with human rights is unrestricted, unregulated, laissez-faire - with a separation of state (including any 'shadow government!) and economics. It will only be after the demise (manufactured, chaos, or not) of Capitalism that a new system will form. This is not a process that can be spelled out, it must be literally a conceptual leap – in other words starting off on a different level of thinking - creatively. In such a system the state must have its power strictly limited, it will have to be designed in such a way as to protect the rights (life, liberty, property etc) of its citizens.
