The Allotment
The idea: Democracy is at its breaking point and the public doesn’t feel the government is fulfilling its end of the social contract. In response, the government passes a new law not requiring a citizen to participate in an organized society. On the day of their 18th birthday, they are given a choice. Either to stay in society and accepts its laws, taxes, and safety nets or renounce state protection, taxation, and services, and live entirely by your own hand in The Allotment. No rescue. No welfare. No rules but your own.
