If we all had to go back to the limits of Dunbars number we might be better off because incentives wouldnโ€™t be perverse anymore. The welfare state is the degradation of society. Force starving people to learn how to produce food and/or value to society and more people would do it.

eh, we certainly wouldn't *all* be better off because the first consequence would likely be the deaths of like 90% of the human population ๐Ÿ˜… Hard to even calculate how much couldn't exist or be sustained if we had to collapse all the way back to Dunbar's number as far as societal scaling.
