But sure there are a lot of fattiea
Fatties*
Poverty is still poverty m8
Singapore has dealt with homless neets
It's literally illegal to be poor and unemployed there.
What system does Singapore use?
They put you in an apartment and give you a job- say sweeping streets
You have no option but to sweep the street.
If you don't they cane you
So now you have a job, and can pay for the apartment.
So how would we design that for the PNW colony?
Because it would be new and wouldn't have a lot of empty housing
why would we need that?
Also, for Singapore, they do have the Asian perception of honour and shame.
Which is much stronger than in Anglo culture today
welfare in the US is not a part of any municipality
but I guess we could run a charity
Charity is key
In Europe it was the Church that provided charity
That was one of the main purposes of monasteries.
And how do we stop the church from coming corrupt?
We dont have to, but we should look at how it provided social assistance.
That has been thought about, if we have enough people we probably will start a church
I think having a church in the future society would be fairly beneficial, especially for those of us who espouse faith
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.
Think less religious worship and more community gathering I think
That family then feels an obligation to contribute in the future
More of a binding force rather than one strictly committed to worship
This community is open to all western faiths right?
yes
So it would be nondemonitainally Christian?
That said, some Catholic monastic orders are comfy AF.
It will be Christian, but now is too early to decide on specifics
>every Sunday in the PNW Colony my family and I play sport with members of the local community at the church playing field and it's my father turn to cook the BBQ for everyone
Has any specific location in the northwest been discussed at all as far as the start of the homesteading?
How much land are we thinking of?
1000 Acres?
to start?
More is better
But just have to come up with a well thought out and detailed plan
