The Free State Project

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the create-your-own-nation dept.

Psychic Burrito writes "From their website: The Free State Project is a plan in which 20,000 or more liberty-oriented people will move to a single state of the U.S. to secure there a free society. We will accomplish this by first reforming state law, opting out of federal mandates, and finally negotiating directly with the federal government for appropriate political autonomy." Perhaps they should also read Everything: Kansas. I think Don Marti was also the one who thought the geeks should do this by moving en masse to North Dakota.

    Please, keep these guys in the US where they belong. We can't lower the most freeks per capita status that the US proudly holds.

    Don't pollute such as place like the Antartic.
