Except that I also see such a society as being worse than what we have
now, and having less freedoms. I am not comparing this society to
Bellamy's or libertarianism. I think it is too simplistic and causes
more problems than it solves. I also don't see "rights" as things to
be doled out be the government. "Rights" to me are more involved with
being left alone and free from government interference rather than
privileges granted by the government.
