In Honduras, a novel undertaking has been constructed--private cities whose purpose is to maximize safety and happiness (Also referred to as "Free Cities", "Charter Cities", "Model Cities", or in Spanish, "RED--Regiones Especiales de Desarollo", and "Ciudades Modelo".). This idea is a capitalist's dream, but a liberal's nightmare. And in a most fascinating manner, the idea of a privately owned commons has brought to the surface the multifarious contradictions of the modern age--with our continual demand for "liberty" while the deified state grows into a malignant colossus.
