Of course, not that we need to live in the jungle that would be missing the whole point.  The point is they simply got fed up with the huge complex State ideological aggrandizement and walked away from it back to focus their lives on their families and village. 

That's super good.  Can I reprint it?

Take it!

Thanks.Smile

That doesn't make a lick of sense.

I thought it made perfect sense.  The quickest way away from the state, is to establish alternatives.

Thanks for the wording it more clearly.

Disney provides customer service training to other firms. If only they trained the DMV, this world would much better.

I work for Disney, DMV is about the level they teach...

What do you think are the fastest ways to establish an anarchist society?

 

Free State Project

At most, I think only 5% of the adult population would need to stop cooperating to have real change.

Since the change has to come about by individual choice, rather than by edict, I see only two major vehicles:

1) Education (educating people that we would be better of without governments)

2) Incentivization (creating a stateless society that others want to emulate, perhaps by micro-secession or seasteading)

To be a real incentive, the stateless society would have to be markedly and obviously superior in certain key areas, I think particularly in the provision of security (police, courts, etc. - the areas that people most doubt could ever work without a government).

But really, micro-secession is already happening on the Internet in ways that I'm not sure how many have noticed. (I'll elaborate in a new post.)
