What Does Your Utopia Look Like to You?

Good morning, Steemians!

The idea of what a utopia looks like is different for everyone, but let me try to tell you guys what mine would look like.

Most people see pictures like this in their head:

I'm not saying this isn't realistic, but I have more humble desires for my utopia:

1. Everyone would grow their own food and trade each other. People could grow different things and just trade each other.

2. Government wouldn't exist (or extremely minimally). Government, in its current state, is immoral, and taxation is theft.

3. No taxes. Taxation is theft and if you don't do what the government wants, they will point a gun at your and lock you in a cage.

4. Let the free market do its thing without government interference.

5. No daycare: parents should and would raise their children in a family, not letting other people raise or rear their children. If children are just without their mothers for 20 or more hours a week, it is almost as if the mother is dead to them. (S. Molyneux stat)

6. Public school shouldn't be mandatory. Well, it's not, because homeschooling is legal (thank god). Let me raise my child how I see fit. Get rid of the state in education.

7. No foreign entanglements!!! Let's get out of foreign countries and stop policing the world (and stealing their resources).

8. The Non-Aggression Principle would be the law of the land. Volunteerism would be king.

9. People wouldn't be driven to commit acts of violence.

10. Everyone would at least give veganism a chance.

11. No manipulation of the markets.

12. No forced healthcare (and no penalty for not having it WTF is that?)

This is just a start and I have had limited time this morning. I think our world would be a much better place with most of these things happening. Thanks for stopping by, Steemians!

I'd like to retire by 55 but it ain't gonna happen

I will likely retire at 40. But retire for me would be become a substitute teacher and work maybe one or two days a week, very chill.

Yeah, exactly, i would probably still work at something, but could take it or leave. 40? how much plata do you have?
