If it affects your life in any meaningful negative way, we have a problem. How's that?

yep

agreed

ok

Alcohol could be a great export imo

nationalize all industry

Much legal trouble.

hm

Special licenses required, tarrifs, government inspections...

No thanks.

well i think we should be self-sustaining and should require no extra help or money

that leads to greed

@Rin some states allow making wine or beer for personal use.

and monopolies

and capitalism

@dmac100 That's not export.

International trade is how a country grows.

So self sustainment would be hard

>literally a small rustic town in the forest

ew

Even the Amish export

autarky is the best

And the Amish build structures *for others as well

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

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

Whose government ours or theirs?

theirs

The US government obviously.

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

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

if we start exporting

we get on peoples' radar

on peoples' radar = government inc

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

What? Foods? Dude you gotta sell minerals

Mining

>mining

>ruining environment

nice

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.
