      Yes, I’ve heard of it and discounted it as a potential solution to the excesses of capitalism for a few reason. But the primary one is how do we deal with an adversarial country who wants to invade us? There would be no standing army, just multiple local militias. If China or Russia wanted to invade the US we would have no chance to defeat them.
