so often. This is not the first time you are saying about people that they live in "pie in sky" fantasy land. I do not know whether I live in fantasy land, nor whether you do. But have YOU considered that you might live in fantasy land, too? I am not implying you are, but that it is important to keep the possibility in mind.

Yes, each of us view the world based on our experiences, opinions and beliefs.  Some of these are more grounded in reality.  I do NOT view someone to be living in fantasy land merely b/c s/he has a different view point than mine, and also, I do NOT throw out these accusations lightly.  If someone begins to talk about facts that are clearly NOT true, and NOT supported by evidence, then I begin to throw out these kinds of accusations.


You may be correct that I may have thrown out the accusations a few times without a context, so in that regard, there may have been a miscommunication regarding my reference point.


For the record, I have no problem with innovative solutions, and potentially incorporating innovative ideas in places where they have NOT been previously applied.  NONETHELESS, I am NOT going to throw out what is working for innovation, if the concept has NOT been thought through to some extent. 

Here, we may need a specific example... and let's take bitcoin, for example.  At this point, I do NOT agree with ideas of throwing out the dollar for bitcoin, b/c bitcoin may NOT be ready to handle all of that.  However, I may be willing to throw out silver and substitute bitcoin for silver or to throw out some country's smaller currency for bitcoin.  Or throw away part of the dollar, such as international remittances and let bitcoin take that portion of the market.  I am just saying that sometimes, we do NOT want to attempt too much unless we think that our proposals can handle the situation.    In any event, I am only one person's opinion, so I understand that others may have differing opinions and prognostications regarding a large variety of matters, including the role of government and community in our daily lives.
