I think this is the ultimate extension of anarchism. Under anarcho-Keynesianism, everyone would be totally bent on "growth" and there would be no one to stop us! No commies or Marxists, no "free market fundamentalists" like Ayn Rand and Mises, no namby pamby pacifists or "Old Economics." Finally a system for everyone! The best of anarchism, centrally-planned markets, and yes... John Maynard Keynes!
In this commune, we'll have meetings every morning to discuss Paul Krugman articles in the New York Times, we'll be fully employed at all times on public works projects, property rights will be sorta half-way as we'll need to break windows and pitch in huge bucks to fight other communes now and again (but always rebuilding them of course like English gentlemen; other Keynes communes will just have insurance built-in so it won't matter). But it won't be one of those Jonestown type deals like Anarcho-syndicalism or anarcho-communism.
Just think: a whole economy built on blowing crap up, big statues and monuments of stuff, "green" makework and featherbed jobs, ever-widening freeways and interstates, and no gridlocked Washington DC to stand in our way!

I have a great idea for what we can call this commune! We shall name it America!
Wait a minute..
Unnecessary! Keynesianism will bring about a scarcityless millenium within one generation! That's what Prophet Keynes says!
"Anticapitalist theories share in common an inability to take human nature as it is. Rather than analyzing man as a complex creature, anticapitalist theories tend to focus on what the theorist wishes man to be." - Isaac Morehouse
Does this come with free hyperinflation? I always wanted to know what it feels like to wipe my ass with currency.

We will have to come up with great mind stimulating activities to fill up our days. All of the leisure time will drive us insane.

You left out the ultimate one: Anarcho-Statism.
Where I come from, the women don't glow, but the men definitely plunder.

Anarcho-mercantilism is also taken. The Anarcho-Mercantilist has written a very good rebuke of left libertarianism. Not that it is very hard.

I see that you're trolling again. Such off-the-cuff statements are not necessary in this thread.
And that you'd take someone calling themselves "anarcho-mercantalist" seriously is quite revealing.

You mean this wonderful collection of strawmen, misrepresentations, fallacies, and false dualisms?
