RE: How my life would be different in a free world / Freedom Challenge
Thank you for a thought provoking post from the heart. I wince when I ask someone "how are you?", and they smile and say "living the dream!" sarcastically. I would say that I can't really imagine a world without any socio-political structure. Wherever there are people, there will eventually be theft, crime, etc. Who would punish criminals or defend it from invasion? Steemit is basically a free digital world, where there is structure, but no central authority. It has strengths, but there are weaknesses too. As a member I am supposed to flag inappropriate posts, yet I worry about "flag retaliation" and flag wars. To solve the "fat cat" problem, (which can also be found on steemit), check out Distributism. Maybe you can do a documentary on the Mondragon cooperative. :-)

Oh thank you very interesting insight! Thanks for sharing!!
That is true, I do agree that there will be theft, crime etc, but I however feel there is ways smaller communities could deal with it rather than the legal system. I just think we should live in small communities ahaha, that would be the dream. Where we just help each other out. But nah, yeah we're humans. Wishful thinking at the very most!
That sounds really up my street I will definitely check that out, again thank you very much :D
That is a good point about dealing with it on a local level, I thought they were imagining there was nothing to deal with. I understand better now.
Great idea about starting a business on steemit @giddyupngo. There is a whole economy on steemit waiting to happen. People have SBD they have been earning and saving. I am certain there are many, many opportunities for new businesses to be born, including documentaries/videography, etc :) They are just waiting for creative solo-entrepreneurs to come and fill a demand and help to create an alternative economy.
