autarky is the best

2017-09-25 00:44:55 UTC  

And the Amish build structures *for others as well

2017-09-25 00:44:55 UTC  

You have to export. Unless you own a country thats massive.

2017-09-25 00:45:07 UTC  

Exporting is fine, just nothing that requires the (((government))) to inspect anything physically.

2017-09-25 00:45:21 UTC  

Whose government ours or theirs?

2017-09-25 00:45:27 UTC  

theirs

2017-09-25 00:45:44 UTC  

The US government obviously.

2017-09-25 00:45:46 UTC  

but yeah i've changed my mind and decided that i would prefer to remain isolationist

2017-09-25 00:45:47 UTC  

@Saxon it depends on the sect. The ones who live near me act like jews, not hard working simple folk.

2017-09-25 00:45:50 UTC  

if we start exporting

2017-09-25 00:45:56 UTC  

we get on peoples' radar

2017-09-25 00:46:04 UTC  

on peoples' radar = government inc

2017-09-25 00:46:07 UTC  

how much exportation are we talking here? we could industrialize on a small scale, beekeeping, traditional foods, etc

2017-09-25 00:46:24 UTC  

What? Foods? Dude you gotta sell minerals

2017-09-25 00:46:27 UTC  

Mining

2017-09-25 00:46:31 UTC

2017-09-25 00:46:35 UTC  

nice

2017-09-25 00:46:48 UTC  

We are building a "colony" within the contiguous US, therefore we are still subject to US law. We won't be able to "export" booze without jumping through the same hoops everyone does.

2017-09-25 00:47:06 UTC  

Which is a non-starter.

2017-09-25 00:47:11 UTC  

Is it legal?

2017-09-25 00:47:15 UTC  

*i hiss at modern society*

2017-09-25 00:47:23 UTC  

Is what legal?

2017-09-25 00:47:33 UTC  

Making alcohol?

2017-09-25 00:47:40 UTC  

Forming a country inside the united states.

2017-09-25 00:47:51 UTC  

it won't be a country

2017-09-25 00:47:54 UTC  

How are we gonna pay taxes and buy tools if we don't sell our goods. We don't need to be flashy, but we do need a source of income for expansion. If we're near a large city farmers markets can make us tons of money.

2017-09-25 00:47:56 UTC  

I said colony, not country.

2017-09-25 00:47:58 UTC  

just a town built by people together

2017-09-25 00:48:12 UTC  

Ahhh

2017-09-25 00:48:13 UTC  

So, kinda like the hutterites?

2017-09-25 00:48:28 UTC  

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

2017-09-25 00:49:24 UTC  

@spudman I see us more like the mennonites. They still use some modern tecnology and are more lax on religion.

We aren't isolationist economically, many of us will likely have jobs in the general population. And there will of course be things that we must buy outside as well.

2017-09-25 00:50:09 UTC  

i think if industry is on the table we should produce products from the land with the help of some machines / methods of procesing

2017-09-25 00:50:51 UTC  

maybe

2017-09-25 00:54:55 UTC  

We'll want all skillsets, blue and white collar. Especially those in finance. Agriculture doesn't make money anymore unless it's huge in scale.

2017-09-25 00:55:10 UTC  

It's great for self sustenance though.

2017-09-25 00:55:52 UTC  

well since i'm going into carpentry
