The reason society is starting to collapse is because we threw away the things made us rich in the first place, classical liberalism and natural law theory.
The enlightenment age ~1685 was the birth of classical liberalism and the new age for humanity. It was the biggest step of real progress humanity has ever made to date. Thanks John Locke, Adam Smith, and John Stuart Mill. Following Natural Law brought us to the Natural Order and the Natural Order made us successful and wealthy, maybe even to wealthy. The Classical Liberals were wrong about one thing, they were correct about natural rights and law, but they were incorrect about governments needing to exists to protect these natural rights. The very existence of government violates our natural rights. The governments that were instituted to protect out natural rights violate our natural rights just by existing.
Anarcho Capitalism would make everyone richer than Classical Liberalism ever did though. Reverting from a Anarcho Capitalism society would also be impossible with current technology which is a plus. You will live within the confines of objective reality, of nature/the universe/god/the gods created, you will follow the Natural Order, and you don’t actually have to like it if you don’t want to. It ultimately reminds me of that one Ludwig Von Mises quote:
“If what one believes is false, one's actions will lead to failure.” ~Ludwig Von Mises
