Hi!

2017-10-21 00:48:33 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

I'm from Vancouver BC

2017-10-21 05:37:06 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

In traditional Western Societies it was Religious orders that filled the role of modern welfare

2017-10-21 05:37:17 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

They also dealt with education and medicine

2017-10-21 05:41:24 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

Singapore has dealt with homless neets

2017-10-21 05:41:36 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

It's literally illegal to be poor and unemployed there.

2017-10-21 05:43:20 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

They put you in an apartment and give you a job- say sweeping streets

2017-10-21 05:43:31 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

You have no option but to sweep the street.

2017-10-21 05:43:41 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

If you don't they cane you

2017-10-21 05:43:57 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

So now you have a job, and can pay for the apartment.

2017-10-21 05:46:08 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

Also, for Singapore, they do have the Asian perception of honour and shame.

2017-10-21 05:46:31 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

Which is much stronger than in Anglo culture today

2017-10-21 05:47:02 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

Charity is key

2017-10-21 05:47:14 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

In Europe it was the Church that provided charity

2017-10-21 05:47:31 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

That was one of the main purposes of monasteries.

2017-10-21 05:47:56 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

We dont have to, but we should look at how it provided social assistance.

2017-10-21 05:49:02 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

I've lived in rural close-knit christian communities before. Usually if a family has a problem, the rest of the community comes together and gets them out of it.

2017-10-21 05:49:24 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

That family then feels an obligation to contribute in the future

2017-10-21 05:50:45 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

This community is open to all western faiths right?

2017-10-21 05:50:58 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

So it would be nondemonitainally Christian?

2017-10-21 05:51:22 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

That said, some Catholic monastic orders are comfy AF.

2017-10-21 05:52:53 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

How much land are we thinking of?

2017-10-21 05:53:00 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

1000 Acres?

2017-10-21 05:53:04 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

to start?

2017-10-21 05:53:31 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

Don;t know if any of you knew this, but the Yukon still allows homesteading land claims.

2017-10-21 05:53:54 UTC [Cascade Front #general]  

So, if you find land, improve it, and develop it, the government gives it to you.

2017-10-21 05:59:02 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

The columbia valley in BC is very good.

2017-10-21 06:01:15 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

If you're doing Alaska you may as well do the Yukon where land is free.

2017-10-21 06:03:56 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

Yes

2017-10-21 06:04:04 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

But they want people to develop it

2017-10-21 06:04:15 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

They honestly don;t care who.

2017-10-21 06:04:37 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

What population?

2017-10-21 06:04:54 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

Not if we are doing a good job developing the land.

2017-10-21 06:07:58 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

What about choosing two communities on both sides of the Canada-US border?

2017-10-21 06:08:06 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

Make sure they are close enough

2017-10-21 06:08:19 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

That way, we dont have to worry as much about visas

2017-10-21 06:08:49 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

Thats an idea

2017-10-21 06:09:10 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

Or the BC/WA/Idaho border

2017-10-21 06:11:18 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

Of course

2017-10-21 06:11:39 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

We might want to look at the Columbia Valley region of BC/WA

2017-10-21 06:12:04 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

It's got a decent climate, good land, and not as susceptible to earthquakes as the coast.

2017-10-21 06:13:56 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

Not very comfy tbh

2017-10-21 06:14:05 UTC [Cascade Front #plans-and-ideas]  

I want my comfy trad timberframe home.
