I have been reading a lot lately about anarchy and libertarian ideas, I have my own ideas, I actually don’t believe we can have a working society without a government, but this government must only be large enough to handle things which are completely needed by society and are not expendable. I think education should be free, we should all have access to health care, there should be a social security umbrella, so when a person can no longer work this person can be sure he will have enough to live on.
Then you have to think of other things which are essential, we need police, we need garbage collectors, we need firemen, utilities, which I don’t think should be in the hands of businessmen, airports, roads, prisons etc. We of course should eliminate war, that way we don’t need the military, I think a society were everyone has an opportunity doesn’t need war. Now of course all of this things have to be financed, and the only reasonable way is through taxes, but the lowest taxes that can be applied, we should also have free trade but not allow monopolies, no collusion between rival corporations just to squeeze the common man.
I suggest government employees should work as a social service maybe for two years instead of military service, and they should be paid, regardless of rank, the minimum wage.Is this possible, I think it is. And I think it was yesterday posted an idea which I found interesting https://steemit.com/blockchain/@everittdmickey/1tje5-tax , the creation of crypto currencies for all of these essentials, if this were possible we wouldn’t even have to pay taxes, these services could actually be self financed, like a fireman crypto, a prison crypto, an education crypto, etc.
Of course I don’t know if this is plausible but it sure sounds good. Maybe it is too utopian, but if you look at it anarchy, socialism, communism, democracy are all very good ideas on paper, but so far have been, at the end failures, maybe this idea I have can, of course tweaked by better minds than mine, be made workable.
