A good start, with many good ideas.
I've read that an affirmation should state the condition you want to have, and avoid stating things that you don't want to have. I feel that a statement of purpose should similarly be simple and positive. If we want to get someplace, we have to know where we are going. So, I suggest that "without currency or organized government" be revised to reflect the desired outcome, not that which needs to be eliminated. I think the concept of individual responsibility begins to fill the void, but more is needed - something at a higher spiritual level - an expression of love. Sorry, I can't come up with a suggested wording right now.
I also realize that a simple short statement of purpose may be difficult for some people to understand, so an accompanying explanation may be in order. It would make sense for the explanation to include those elements of current society that are not desired in future society. My feeling is that all of those things that divide us against each other need to go (John Lennon's song "Imagine" has a good starter list).
