1000 acre islands are not available just any place,.....
Actually one of the few intelligent things the Obama administration has approved of is opening a new patent office near the island on the waterfront.
Er... for the people they are asking to invest, money is not the important issue...
LOCATION.
“Frozen winters” sounds good to a group of people looking to build a nation of their own surrounded by water? Bad plan.
There are 1000 acre+ islands in many, many locations with mild climates. There are lots of large-scale commercial real estate agents that know of them off-hand.
Someone said it’s close to infrastructure.... I can’t help, but wonder if they read that it’s near Detroit?
So Detroit’s going to just give that stuff away on the cheap so a bunch of right-wing, low tax settlers can move next door? Oh, man....
Putting it near Detroit just means that it’s near an invading army of looters and criminals that can walk across the ice in the winter. Bad plan.
