Toni,

Respect.

But I'm sure you could have drawn this out for a few days more.

Anyhow, for what its worth, the problem with the system you advocate is that people become enchanted by anarchism and start to break away from the ideology. In the end the entire society is infested with splitters.

Thereafter the people become so disenchanted that they beg to be saved by someone like brave Sir Robin.

//all those high ideals of socialism have created enslavement by corrupt and incompetent totalitarian bureaucracies, happy to leave their neglected subjects in poverty, and all too ready to torture and murder those who would challenge their undemocratic authority. No welfare or healthcare in socialist nirvanas, Toni.//

Ah yes, but are there welfare and healthcare in aquatic female sword hurling nirvanas? That's the question you should be asking, Fester.

Toni,

What is to stop you from starting your own nirvana in Australia? All you need do is find enough like minded people and you can form your own collective. Do you think you could do that in a socialist country?

//What is to stop you from starting your own nirvana in Australia? All you need do is find enough like minded people and you can form your own collective.//

Just my own unwillingness to form a collective, I suppose. Since I'm clearly in favour of the sword tossing model. I mean really, what part of:

//F^&k it, let's just have a system based on strange women lying in ponds distributing swords. Imagine the red tape we could save.//

did you fail to comprehend?

"Take care, sir," cried Sancho. "Those over there are not giants but windmills."

Toni,

What is there to stop you finding like minded people and implementing your nirvana other than your lack of motivation? I might see your nirvana as frivolous and stupid, but with the system we have I have a right to my opinion (although with 18c I have to be careful what I say lest I unleash a bureaucratic persecution) and you have your right to live the dream.

//What is there to stop you finding like minded people and implementing your nirvana other than your lack of motivation?//

A shortage women putting their hand up to perform the fundamental task of lying in ponds handing out the swords. I reckon that would be probably be the biggest difficulty in implementing the system.

//I might see your nirvana as frivolous and stupid//

I should hope so.
