Assuming everyone would abide with whatever I choose, it would be cool to try and set up an absolute communist government to see if we could make it work.

I wish there were more social experiments with this kind of stuff. Instead of having strong Federal government, let each city decide the system they want just to compare strategies and see what happens. Instead of everyone trying to make their city fit their ideals, just move to the city that shares your ideals.

I'll be in the city that removes the idea of needing to survive. Everyone has what they need to survive, after that your free to live whatever life you want. Just don't fuck with someone else's life and incentivize people to fill the jobs needed. I want to see what humanity can create when it no longer has to but wants to.

The constitution would be a lot like what we have in the U.S. We would make some edits though. I would probably mix in some parlimentary ideas to avoid the two party system. And publicly fund campaigns.

Pretty much how I would do it. Perform a liberty bug check, roll in the amendments and reboot what the US was supposed to be.

Dictatorship. Cuba is proof that if the dictator has the people in mind, it is the purest form of governance

Poverty and hunger are rampant in Cuba. They have been propped up by the ussr. Their oppressive private business laws have allowed their fields to law fallow.

Common saying in Cuba "they pretend to feed us. We pretend to work."

Cuba is a country with little to no resources, anyway. The fact that they do so well speaks wonders of the distribution of resources

Still, fair point.

I'd arm everyone and let them sort it out. It would probably the most polite society ever.

I'd consider seriously trying out true anarchy. No laws, no government. I'm sure it would last about 5 minutes.

I'd hope that the people which are going to the new terraformed world are at least smart enough not to try any shit with attempting to take power over the civilization and live with everyone without any laws or government. Guy can dream can't he?

I voted for a natural law party once, I did not like the main candidates and new they would not win.

Eventually organized crime will fill in the gaps, all good sit in your throne watching the anarchy unfold. :)

It last only until you find out who has the biggest set of nads. Then they are king.

Honestly, libertarian communism would probably what I could see. Also, freedom of speech and minimal laws. Pretty much only laws that would ban outright violence.

You know those two things are as far apart as possible on the economic system graph right? Exact opposite quadrants.

If you want communism with goods/money and libertarianism with personal choices and freedoms you are describing classical liberalism.

Communal stuff, based on trust. Sharing what you have of surplus is encouraged but not required. Team work. Like a mix of capitalism and communism

what if I don't want to share my surplus, and What if I want some of the surplus of others as well?

Then they'll have to find someone who will share or trade for pawn credits.

Pretty much yea, but more sharing and more trust. Once you're untrustworthy you're pretty much done for.
Things like murder. Stealing. Crimes that you cause you to not turn your back on the person.

that's not how it works, they still need something to live off of. It is completely up to them whether they want to trade or keep it. You can ofc give them pawn-credits for what they price it off of. The key thing is that only the fair minimums are protected, meaning once you make over a certain amount, it becomes greed, not need. Producing extra is rewarded with pawn-credits. The extra goes to those who do not have. in the form of seeds, or land, or etc. Teamwork is the goal, and if you're only leading for yourself, then you're ruining everything for others.

Probably a three-branched direct democracy with mandatory voting. Free speech would be enforced everywhere.

Mandatory voting? Or what? Jail for understanding that you don't understands? You can make it easy to vote. But making it mandatory seems problematic.

In Australia you can either vote or get a fine, it does result in people donkey voting, though.

Or probably a ten dollar fine, or something. It's like a speeding ticket.
