I’m especially intrigued by the possibility that a nation, or alliance of nations, could fix cultural drift via a futarchy-type government tied to a national welfare measure that put a lot of weight on a sacred long term goal, like when we have a million people living in space, s goal that seems in conflict with civilization collapsing over the next few centuries. Preventing such collapse seems a good way to promote adaptation, and citizens are less likely to balk when futarchy demands sacrifices in the name of a sacred goal, compared to more profane goals.
