RE: Is this the libertarian utopia some Steemers dream of?
The difference is government has force behind it. If a community is peacefully and voluntarily organizing, then it's not government. Libertarianism is anything but "utopian". Thinking a few elected officials in Washington wielding the immense power of government, and the incredible incentives of lobbyists will ever do anything but line their pockets is utopian to me.
Well, I meant to use the word utopian for its traditional meaning really.
Utopian.- A Utopia is an imagined community or society that possesses highly desirable or nearly perfect qualities for its citizens
So in reality I'm not in disagreement with your statement one bit.
Oh I see
