(22,911 posts)From what I understand the closest we have seen to that coming about was in Spain where a robust anarchist movement worded at the grass roots level for decades before a self governing system came to fruition in large parts of Spain during the Spanish Civil War. Obviously Anarchy can't be imposed op a people, it's values can be taught (and were taught at the town level in Spain) but it has to be embraced by the people in order to take root. When that happens things begin to function differently. Health care I suspect would be recognized as a human right at the community level and the community would support institutions and professionals who provided it for those in need in a manner akin to addressing all other basic human needs such as education food and shelter.
In our current culture we can only practice using the tools that anarchy develops in isolated cooperative settings - this society as a whole is not prepared to function in those ways.
