If the "fast-paced, innovative future" includes petulant children stomping around mad because the big, bad government won't let them do whatever they want no matter the consequences to those around them, I'd say governments are more relevant than ever.

Okay, but let's see if the governments or the petulant children win. You know which thread you're in, right?

Historically, either the government wins or the petulant children win and then become the power center that directs government that the next set of petulant children complain about.
Either way, governments are part of the future. There no real reason to expect this iteration to work any differently than all the others since humans gathered in structured societies.
