In Kim Stanley Robinson's "Green Mars",    
he has a settlement of explorers on Mars     
who split off from Earth and form their    
own political system.                    
                     
His cadre of elite astronauts
work up a consensus document with
clauses that no one of a free
market bent would ever agree to--

And libertarians are if anything
over-represented in technical circles.
What happened to them in Robinson's
future history?
