Plans are underway to create “Freedom Cities” — privately controlled corporate enclaves that would operate outside federal oversight — across the United States.
According to Wired, a coalition of tech billionaires, venture capitalists, and corporate advocacy groups is drafting congressional legislation and meeting with the Trump administration to bring these experimental cities to U.S. soil.
The outlets reports that these cities would be “free from certain federal laws,” allowing unregulated human longevity trials, nuclear reactor startups, and unrestricted infrastructure projects to move forward without government approval. As Wired puts it:
The goal of these cities would be to have places where anti-aging clinical trials, nuclear reactor startups, and building construction can proceed without having to get prior approval from agencies like the Food and Drug Administration, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and the Environmental Protection Agency.
Given the globalist affiliations and ideology of its backers, this project threatens to establish corporate-controlled fiefdoms, advancing a top-down governance model that gradually replaces national sovereignty with corporate rule.
Donald Trump has fully embraced the idea of “Freedom Cities.” In 2023, he branded it as a revival of the American Dream.
The Freedom Cities Coalition, a corporate-backed advocacy group, is leading the charge to establish privately run city-states across the United States. Far from a grassroots movement, this coalition is the direct extension of Próspera, a controversial “startup nation” founded in 2020 on the Honduran island of Roatán.
Próspera markets itself as a haven for tech entrepreneurs and corporate investors. It is offering low taxes, minimal regulations, and a governance model that treats residents as “customers” rather than citizens. Now, its backers aim to replicate this model on U.S. soil, creating semi-autonomous corporate enclaves where government oversight is no more.

Yes,
I see a problem.
They’re called Indian reservations. You know-It’s where all the casinos are located. Put hospitals and clinics there free of the government. Then watch all the reservations multiply.
A for free speech bring back the minstrel shows.
This is the first I am hearing of this.
It may not be a bad idea - think of a city with very low taxes, completely free-market hospitals and clinics that accept no government money, nor FDA/HHS oversight, open carry laws, no government required welfare or sec. 8 housing, etc....
It would be very popular.
not much different from all the “Opportunity Zones” the Feds created to boost investment in the ghettos.
Trump first supported this horrific idea two years ago:

Libertarian...there was a big lawsuit going on between the Roatan Island Prospers folks and the government of Honduras. The gov revoked the ZEDE charter or something like that.
They’d need to be built with natural resources nearby. Rivers for water and a bridge(to nowhere?) to keep the riff-raff socialists at bay.
There’s always the Freedom Ship.

Sounds unconstitutional.

How can they do that INSIDE the USA?
To me as well.
Once they are completed, I will build an army and siege these city/states like Alexander.
You mean, like most of the US for most of its history prior to the administrative state? When it became the world's premier industrial power? /s
Doesn’t Disney have something like that? You know, pervert city in Orlando.
NOPE. Full stop.
Mega-City One.

Pardon me, but the CSA tried this plan a hundred and sixty five years ago, and it didn’t turn out well for them. There were a few northern neighbors with the same idea but without the balz to act before them.
