Free Emporium

Note: This is purely theoretical, and may only work in theory, not in practice. Humans may not be capable of having a flawless social system. But other creatures like ant colonies and bee hives have been shown to have the capability of a flawless social structure, however unable they are to enjoy it.

My definition of utopia, even if it's impossible is, everything is free of every part of life, or after it is built it is free to use. No rules, no taxes, no bills = no control over you by anybody. Freedom.

The Libertarian or Objectivist ideology is: Everyone can do whatever they want as long as it doesn't negatively impact other peoples lives.

A free community would be a community where:
  • No one relies on anyone.
  • No one needs to be responsible for any one or anything.
  • Nothing is ever stolen because it's free anyway.
  • So who cares even if it's stolen.
  • No need to take things from others by force by killing them.
  • No need to kill to keep people silent if everything is transparent, and no crimes need to be kept secret.
  • No secrets means less stress.
  • Land and resources are free and infinite, so no fighting over land or resources
  • No more homeless because life is so simple that even a baby could run it. Just have food and shelter and internet education, only family is lacking.
  • Nobody has power or control over others
  • Nobody needs power and control because all your needs are already taken care of.
  • You can pass the time by doing meaningful work.
  • No job so no need to be professional
  • No need to keep appointments(no need for watches?)

Side effects of everything being free are:
  • Some rules: For no rules at all, look at a pirate ship on international waters. People can get killed and no one cares. So there have to be some common sense laws like no drinking and driving or killing or rampages, or sexual predators, or blackmailing, or bombing your evil nemesis's house. Just rules that everyone agrees to. The rules may just be a document that everyone living within a certain area agrees to live under and they'd better read it and know the rules. Or with no rules you just pick the people you want to be around and stay out of dangerous situations
  • Socialism: If everything was free then what's the motivator to work at a factory and make new machines, or to research and develop new inventions? If nothing is produced then the economy as a whole suffers. So free things is more suited for a small village rather than a world economy.
  • The summer of love: Had it's own version of the free store which failed because people would donate things but no one would get anything accomplished and eventually they ran out of everything and had to go back to working. But this isn't a thrift store I'm proposing.
  • Dangers: Just know the dangers of this new society of no rules, and avoid those dangers. Like the killer next door or the enemy territory. In the same way you avoid jumping off a cliff. Or have a solution to the danger such as a fire arm. Besides, it's boring to not have a little danger, and adventure.

Free things to start a free emporium with:
  • Garden that grows itself and seeds itself and waters itself. But you still have to do weeding with a weed auger. And have weekly sowing of seeds for longer growing season. Put plastic over part of the garden and remove the plastic little by little. To block out light and water until ready to grow.
