Total communism.

Communism hasn't worked so far because it's been applied on a massive scale. You can't police millions and millions into a system like that.

On a small scale, however, communism would work beautifully. That's what communism was intended for. Not a billion people. That can't have effective compliance. Small scale though, as long as you have 80% of people on board, it'll be successful.

This is similar to Nationstates. CGR had a big ol group back in the day, last I checked, she was dwindling.

anywho, I would probably do as Dustin said. A True Democracy. So everyone gets a say and all that suff.

Communism will never work, because its basic premise is that people are not inherently sinful. Republican government with separation of powers, on the other hand, operates on the principle that people will try to corrupt the government.

It's nationstates.net - and I just recreated my country - The Confederacy of Far-Flung Christendom. Anyone else interested in reviving the Nation States colony, start a new thread.

Actually, variations on the theme of communism do work quite wel in tribal societites... to some extent, even close nit ethnicities (Omish, some Jewesh groups, etc) practice a "do for the community" organization that functions.

An anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week, but all the decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting, by a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs but by a two-thirds majority in the case of more major (affairs).
