There's always the answer of "education", or "morality", but inevitably someone will decide to toss those under the bus because they were smart enough to realize they could do so.

That's also simple. When one tries to assert their will over you, don't comply.
Even in an Anarchistic world, we can't expect everyone to be perfect and hell, even in the midst of all these governments, we still have conflict. So what good is the system of controls set in place anyway?
Let's put it this way. If I intend to kill you for example, a cop WILL NOT save your life. Sure, I might go to jail, but you're dead so my intentions are already achieved.
I will say this much, I doubt that any country right now is ready for anarchy by tomorrow. People still put too much stock in material possessions and social status.
Essentially, we have to start teaching the younger generations that material does not matter. Your gold plated Nike shoes are pointless.
Even today, we have poor people in the ghetto that's convinced they aren't worth anything unless they have a full blown FuBu wardrobe.
