If you start with one bacteria, eventually you end up with different species. Much simpler is a group of like minded humans splintering into subgroups IMO.

Why limit it to the US?

I've spent some time looking at county by county Red/Blue maps from the 2004 election, thats all.

My idea is more that libertarianism can work in the cities, not that it has been implimented to any great extent in them.

Good. But my understanding of dynamics systems is that most accessible states eventually get tried. Since I don't see this one in existence, with a fairly large data set, I question its viability.

As I said before I think there are more interactions with others, but I'm not sure they are closer.

Which is why I tacked on 'imagined'. I do agree that many of the bonds between individuals in rural settings might actually be stronger than in urban settings. BTW, I also think that is linked somewhat to numbers, I've long thought that individual value has a term that is inversely proportional to the group population, but that is another issue.
