Completely agree. Creating small communities with individuals that know and trust each other is what i see as a good and functioning future. Develop human values and good interactions, invest in human qualities and good human connections and we will see blossoming communities with people that support each other without the need for a central "daddy" that need to dictate what is good and what not.

This reminds me of something we (as europeans) did long time ago...to colonize North America.
