Has anyone else read "The Golden Age" by John C. Wright? I'm really fascinated by the idea of the College of Hortation. I think Wright actually sees it as sinister, but I thought it was a good idea. Rough idea: Make all laws extremely libertarian, and then have a voluntary group people join that does things liberals say they want (free healthcare with progressive membership dues, etc.) Except in his book, if you weren't a member, no one would do business with you - because it was against the terms of membership, and almost everyone was a member. So then those people who rejected society could, but they couldn't trade with almost anyone.
