"Without the Utopias of other times, men would still live in caves, miserable and naked. It was Utopians who traced the lines of the first city. . ." --Anatole France

Post #1 Daily Life and Economy
POST #1- First, define what your utopia is about! What does utopia mean to you? How do your residents spend their days? What about jobs and school? Do you use money? Do you get paid different amounts for different jobs? (perhaps based on danger of your job??) What happens if you do not go to work? or school? How can this be set-up to be WORRY-FREE? How does age relate to daily living? Do you ever retire to enjoy life? What do you consider free-time? What are you doing during this time? Is there television? is it local only or can you view the rest of the world? How are meals prepared? individually? in groups? Is food grown or bought from grocery store? Are all of your residents treated equally in all areas of their daily lives? What happens if someone gets sick? Do they pay the doctor? Again, think about all of the literature that we have studied about utopia- remember how their daily lives operated. Do you see some of the same plans for yours?
