A "shareware" jointly written utopian novel, perhaps with different branches as visions diverge, could be interesting. I sense a divergence already in our visions -- that the presumed the protagonists of the novel, hopefully a growing, if not the total set of all memebers of humanity, celestial realms and the animal kingdom, being abundaantly creative, clear, bright, compassionate, empathetic, resourceful, self-sufficient, firing on or towards all cylinders of full-potential, sliding and falling raipidly towards and past realization, actualized in all major eight or more aspects of intelligence, living the sparkling life of full-pressed and balanced neurotransmitors and receptors in great waves of brain cohernece synch, dis-ease free, understanding and in harmony with the laws of nature, harnessing deep and pwoerful levels of harmonious technology, living in balance with the earth, seas and atmosphere, resolving conflicts non-violently (on chat formus :)) and with the sparkling "air" from regular massive collective spirital (non)-efforts, engaged in loving and caring relations with all levels of relations and family, bounding out of bed at morning to get to work to make even greater contributions and to find new answers, a strong tradition and deep resources for life-long learning / all knowledge at your fingertips, understanding, vison, service and philanthropy valued and lived at a nuch higher scale than owning "stuff" and a hog-trough daily feeding of the senses, compassion instead of judgement dominating relations, a ethos towards perfecting the art inherent in all tasks and actions -- and much less on its acquisitional fruit, -- it is surprising if such a connected sea of humanity would need a paternalistic, and by implication a controlling and standard/rule setting government to take care of them, instead of, so to speak, enabling everyone to create spectacularly creative fishing poles and great schools of fishing, rather than a goverment run counter to distribute your daily ration of fish.
