RE: Socialism v Capitalism – isn’t it about time we changed the record?
I agree with the need for any 'centralized' authority. How about a 'decentralized authority' instead? One where you could choose which group you want to pay tribute (taxes) to (if at all) for various services like protection, fire fighting services, etc.
interesting idea, can you explain more? I would rather have a non monetary system,as I think money will be redundant in the future, but this future might be far off still. Meanwhile we need transition models. Your idea could fit there. This reminds me of a project called resilience, made by a swedish guy called Johan nygren,who is also on Steemit
Please check this link and compare it to your idea;

I meant -- I agreed with your comment that a central authority is not needed.
Basically, the idea behind a 'decentralized authority' is that the power structure exists and you cannot remove / dismantle it completely, as then something else would naturally form in its place in the wake of the vacuum.
Instead, decentralization of power should be the goal; how that can be accomplished, or even what that is are another matter.
