The Meritocratic Republic of Canada

Every European desires a meritocracy. Everything which everybody complains about is as such because anti-meritocratic forces are at work diminishing and destroying social cohesion and values. It is quite simple to define meritocracy in thermodynamic language and in biological language, but the difficulty has always been in how to define it in practice, as practicable law to govern society, especially in the midst of modern pseudosciences and claimed expertise where none actually exists. The greatest threat to meritocracy is false merit in politically or financially manufactured fields of elaboration and social and scientific concern. Thermodynamically, merit would be defined as negative-entropy or negentropy, as work which counteracts dispersion and dissolution and destruction, as structures of social behaviour which maintain order, power, and efficiency. A simple honour-system roadside farmer’s stand is an example of European meritocracy, which would be impossible to maintain against entropic destruction and theft in most of the rest of the world’s lands and peoples. This makes the point that what is anti-meritocratic is what is entropic, that is, in what is parasitic; social parasitism is reflected in theft and grift and the general destruction of social order, social cohesion, and productive services.Most of all, meritocracy is about competence, and nothing annoys European people more than incompetence and the related theft, grift, sophistry and lies which come along with it. Meritocracy is about allowing competence to flourish, and in allowing more competent systems and people to replace old systems which have thus become outdated; some systems do not change or do not need to change, and in these we still expect competent and trustworthy handling of them.
