It has never been tried in Europe. All European governments evolved from dictatorships, sometimes called monarchies.



It's tried in every city, neighborhood, block, group of people in the world, every day, all day... it fails every day, all day.

People aren't just going to leave people alone - even in the most respectable countries people wise. And as soon as you can vote you will have rules that others don't agree with, the entire thing breaks down... it's impossible to have a libertarian system but you can have the values.
