Anarchy in the IT

Although the ideas of Anarchism are very appealing to me, in IT it simply doesn't work.

I am more in favour of a societal model like the one of typical hunter-gatherers tribes, where a group of old (and fat :o) ), experienced hunters have a leadership and control over the team, letting nevertheless young energetic warriors and hunters contribute with their ideas and innovations. Old leaders who go insane should be demoted (unlike in Italy where the older and more rotten you are, the more you rise in politics).
