It exists:     Paradise would be a place where everybody:
         has guaranteed employment, free comprehensive healthcare,
free education, free food, free housing, free clothing,
free utilities, and only law enforcement has guns.
And believe it or not, such a place does indeed already exist:
    It’s called prison.  –  Sheriff Joe Arpaio  Maricopa County, Arizona
