Because as great the Union is...it isn't perfect.Bureaucrats make decissions...Bureaucracy is not eliminated...not even in the advanced Union (sigh)... Union Health is part of the Health and Education department and not Union Fleet (or Military) .. Imagine something like "Doctors without Borders" ...they mean well, they are sent by the UN to help in war zones like Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine and African nations...and yet these idiots abduct the Doctors, steal the medicines, ..yet the Doctors don't give up....Those are humanists//

Now back to the our Universe: Every Union Colony has to have a certain amount of basis services...Such as School, Medical Services etc. But they can't be forced to attend School, use Medial services or use the Post Office.

Now every Colony develops differently. That the Neo Vikings of Nilfeheim (officially) reject "Off World" influence is no secret.. (but when it is convinient declare it "traditional") It is the core "feel" of the Story,,,,It supposed to be a liviing (not perfect) world...
