	The Free State Project Increase the size of your Attachments

http://www.freestateproject.org/

This was in my local paper this morning, and it seems like a really good idea. If you're too much of a slacker to read a link, basically as many libertarians as they can get move to the same state so that they can have enough clout to really influence things on the state level.
How brilliant is that? They get what they want, the rest of us don't have to deal with them, and anyone else who wants the same sort of thing for their own agenda can find a different state and try it themselves. Best of all, it will provide a sort of living laboratory with which people can test political ideas - if all the libertarians move to Wyoming and Wyoming suddenly starts doing a lot better, maybe they have something after all (although of course no political scientist worth his salt will accept empirical studies at face value because that would be too easy, but it would still be interesting to see)
And have any Apolytoners signed up? I can think of a couple who could fit right in.

Gee, I'd be so happy if I lived someplace, and a bunch of freaks all moved there to take over.

Go buy an island and leave normal people alone!

Wyomnig's too pretty a place to allow libertarians to turn it into one giant strip mine. Take over New Jersey.

PLEASE DO! Anything to get these moron Democrats out of here . Shame that Whitman couldn't run again (though, yah, she isn't a libertarian, and she was good for the environment).

And the reason they picked Wyoming is because it is already fairly libertarian (very on the right... remember Cheney is revered there), and there ain't many people there .

The Upper Midwest used to be the main power base of the left untill it was distroyed my McCarthy, I can't beleive Wisconsinites elected such a lunatic. I still think Wellstone's plane "accident" was an assassination by the powers of the Republican Party, because he was the most hated senators by the Republicans, and it was only 2 years aftet the plane crash that killed the Democrat Senator from Missouri, looks suspicious to me!

Republicans are assassins!

That's all I can deal with at the moment. I need time to heal.

After eight years of libertarian majority, you will all abandon crazy libertarianism and switch to crazy communism.

That in itself is not that bad, because it will instantly put me right of centre in North America by moving the centre, but I pity whatever state you are going to destroy.
