i'm all for establishing a self-suficient community, but where? Will you still buy shit from the outside?
The Pacific Northwest, and we'll probably establish ourselves in an already existing town.
what state? what will you do about normies?
Oregon or something, but we'll deal with normies as they come.
are you gonna pay taxes?
there will be normies....already in the existing town
Obviously we'll have to.
a lot of these questions are answered there
were not separatists
well already oregon is off the map, state income tax
washington has none
no one will likely make enough money for it to be taxable
that's unrealistic. the best idea is for everyone to set up internet businesses and collect money that way. then funnel it into the community.
lol right
ok so in the community why will dollars be the currency what use will they have unless you set a central bank to set currency levels
there is the possiblity of going off-the-grid
what i'm getting at - 100% off the grid will take a very long time. in the meantime cash will make up the difference.
yes
no bank - bitcoin my man
yeha because your money is safe in btc
In some permaculture communities I've seen they are still "on the grid" in the sense that they occasionally restock at town and need a small income, but mostly they produce their own goods and barter with eachother
Barter is pretty top tier for a community like this imo
^^
agree
@StaysafeTV - 191 lb Muscle Man yeah a currency can only be detrimental as it always is
crypto can be used for barter and SHTF emergencies
shtf like when the pwoer goes out and the internet goes down
gold/silver are also an option
welcome to the future:

@Orchid then anyone can crash your economy with bringing in a lot of gold...only goods and services with immediate and concrete calue would work
nothing one person can hoard
and satellites cant get shot down either..or once btc crashes they determine the satellite is best used for other services
what i'm getting at - these discussions have to happen. all of these things should be planned out BEFORE mass movement
I'm 100% onboard with creating a community, but right now we are nowhere near
ok use potatoes or local caloric food as currency
