That’s your problem.

That’s how I feel, too. Best wishes to them.

They could have bought “fixer-uppers” in Detroit for free.

Their learning curve will be sharp. They have to figure out water, sewer, electric, government, superstructure, policing, zoning, etc. We all can find fault with our local city government, but one advantage they have is that they have gone through an immense amount of thinking it through.

That’s really not how any of this works.

Completely agree with you. If they can make it work, great! I’m all for families having safe, healthy, happy environments in which to thrive. But chances are they’re going to have a lot of hard lessons and hard decisions to make along the way.

I think they’re going to learn a lot about why police work is done the way it is and thin that line between society and chaos truly is. But I wish them luck.

Meh, if it works out, good for them. My hunch though is that give it a couple months and it turns out to be CHAZ, Rural Edition.

But hey, I support property rights for everyone. If they bought the land fair and square, no issue.

Wait until they are committed to staying. Then bring in the queers, the trannies, muslims, pedos, and see how that gets handled.

Wasn’t this called a commune back in the 60s?

Yes but now it's called an 'intentional community'. Happens all the time. They act like this is something new. There's a website with a bunch of intentional communities.

Good for them for doing something. Will it last?? Sometimes things in theory are great but people argue and sometimes these things don't last.

Hope they checked to see who owned the clay/kaolin rights to the property.

Sounds like the two of us, out here at 'Abandon All Hope' Farm.

We picked a downtrodden name for the place; we don't want people to be jealous and want to take our 'stuff,' ya know? ;)

Oh, and the sign at the top of the drive seems to do the trick, though the FedEx Man laughs every time he sees it:

Probably not until they start receiving government funding of some sort.
