A Gulch?
Posted by Lysander 10 years, 7 months ago to Government
Looking for the most free state or country to move to. Which US state would be best? Which nation?
While we're very happy to have you in the Gulch and appreciate your wanting to fully engage, some things in the Gulch (e.g. voting, links in comments) are a privilege, not a right. To get you up to speed as quickly as possible, we've provided two options for earning these privileges.

ok. to the gulch. to illustrate: jbrenner and many other gulchers are actively trying to make a physical gulch possible. Please check into those threads. There are gulchers who need to stay focused on their industriousness in their fields. Support and promote them is my policy. Then there are the gulchers who focus on ideas. Getting the ideas into the mainstream. Then there are other guchers who have...galted. Db and I are two, but look to shruggininargentina's posts as well. There are many others who work on the practicalities of life in chaos and anarchy. Let us know (carefully) your area of expertise. Many of us catalog this kind of stuff. some of us are just public. others in the gulch are stealthy. I would say we are all here in some way. I see most of the gulchers as heroes. and I try to provide value to a site that is so unique in all of the noise out there. stay tuned and happy reading, Neal....
The best place is the USA which shows you how far we are from a free place in which to live.
But if you're really serious, this doesn't mean it is not possible, just don't get sidetracked into rushing to situations that are bound to fail. As to the best state, probably Texas. Lots of Libertarian types there, lots of empty space to use as an enclave. But, you'll need many years, and hoping the idea will spread by your example. No Gulch tomorrow, but a possible future if you're tenacious enough.
PS - Just received my signed copy of Pendulum of Justice.
"armadillo" and the mini-grand-canyon.......
but buy an island if you can -- or part of one, like
Grand Cayman. . they have a way of staying out
of the news.
I bought a gulch in tennessee, literally, and put in
a jeep trail across the gulch to fan out any potential
gushing rainfall;;; we also have no state income tax
(except for a moderate tax on dividends/interest).
Good Luck with your search!!! -- j
or it's just a fictional plot device...
what's wrong with this statement, Neal? :)

With socialized medicine, New Zealand should not be in the running.

This is how people see us from the outside. I believe it works that way from the inside too. We are a big lazy country, and we are sufficiently affluent that bad decisions do not bite us dearly. It is not impossible that there be a call to action; nor is it impossible that we will 'dodge the bullet' by drifting back towards a Libertarian model of government.
There are encryptions that the alphabet soup agencies are not supposed to be able to break. There is also the fact that if you are simply going about business as usual your presence traveling the highways of the US is noted, but not notable. So, if you do not want to have to travel by horseback, instead: join the AKA and start showing your dog all over the US.

I really like New Zealand. Not that I like or agree with their way of government, but it sure seems to work well for them. The first time we were there, they had two government controlled TV stations. One day we read in their newspaper headlines, "US Bombs Woman and Children." referring to Libya. We were doing Bed an Breakfast stays and had to play completely dumb as to what we really thought about it. Women had no say, the men would answer to me every time my wife asked a question. They tried to ignore her.
If you ever find the Gulch please let me know.
