Who plans on joining the Free State Project in New Hampshire this year?

[Slacker]

New Hampshire has Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren as next door neighbors. I'm in RI and I want to move as far away as possible from them. Once those socialists states fail and they have no more welfare checks left to give, Occutards will flood over the border into NH and they'll start demanding Free Staters pay their fair share.

Alaska looks much more attractive...

Why on earth move to Idaho, the Dakotas, Wyoming or anywhere else? The FSP is well established and there's no use in across a load of states.

If enough of us in the liberty movement would band together we could take control of New Hampshire, Wyoming, Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota. For some reason most people stay where they are.

Moving absolutely sucks when you have "stuff." You have to make things very appealing to motivate people.

Don't go to Idaho. Mormon voters that care more about a candidates religion than freedom make this state a lost cause. Plus the state has a sales, income, and property tax.

Glad to see you guys keep going strong after a decade. Congrats!

Well if anyone is moving for liberty purposes I can't see any logic in choosing anywhere but New Hampshire. The FSP is well established and there is a reason NH was selected. The fact that over 1,000 activists have already moved there also makes a big difference.

I can see why people would choose other areas for difference reasons - Florida for the weather, Nevada for the gambling, New York for the city or anywhere else for familial reasons - but if liberty is the purpose of your migration, then it simply has to be New Hampshire.

I'm thinking I'm going to apply to Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH. Hopefully I'd be able to get an internship/job right away. It will be a huge change -- moving from Oregon, no family there in NH, and I'd be 18. Wow. It does seem like the ideal place to live, though.

Then NH would be a great choice because members of the FSP will help you settle in, besides, you'll be at college - plenty of people at college to hang around with.

Good luck with the ap, Dartmouth is one of the top colleges in the world so it is hard to get in. Please consider applying for other colleges in nh, also. And the greater boston area is another option, it is the college center of the US.

If you're in-state, the tuition at the state colleges is pretyy cheap.

Thanks! I think I have the grades/scores to get in (I'll likely be valedictorian or salutatorian). We'll see. I have to take two more SAT tests though, because Dartmouth requires subject tests. Most colleges (even most Ivy Leagues) say they are just optional, but whatever. I also really want to go to Stanford, just because its such a good school, but its in California :/

What other colleges would you recommend in NH? The main thing I'm looking for is financial aid, honestly, so private colleges are generally better for out of state. I want to study mathematics/statistics and become an actuary/statistician.

Yeah, that's why its tempting to stay in Oregon. I could likely go for free at UO or OSU.

 

[pochy1776]

Can't I love my hometown too damn much to leave. I Hope Iwill be moving to Concord or Hanover soon for something. I will try to find some damn excuse so my parents would not shun me.

Colleges should only be private and for the worthy. The middle class should go to trade school (much better and more economical.)

I hope you get a scholarship, College is too damn expensive, especially Darthmouth. If you want Ivy League, go to Yale or Harvard or if you have a time machine go to Yale or Harvard circa 1956. Also, look your damn best: Navy Blazer, Oxford shirt, Strip repp tie, chinos and penny loafers. This should be damn required for every college boy in america, girls wear dresses. Only pot smokers wear sweatshirts and and jeans. I hope you do become what you want to become. And take some liberal arts classes the ivy league is good at that. Make every use of your collegiate time. And if you need extra schooling: Pick Law or Medicine, those are the only things that are worth another damn 4 years.

I am 99% sure I will be in New Hampshire this spring. My wife is going to be a Free Stater as well. We want Liberty or DEATH!

I would really like to see this experiment succeed and gain enough power to control the politics of New Hampshire. In order for the general population to take Libertarianism seriously, they'll need to see it in action. The Free State State project can provide that framework.

So. Who plans on moving to New Hampshire this year?

 

[KMX]

I will be there in the Spring 2013!

I think VT has the lowest unemployment rate East of the Mississippi River and NH has the 2nd lowest unemployment rate.

There are hospitals and doctors offices all over NH but the population is concentrated in southeastern NH and especially within the Manchester area, the coast and near the MA border.

The job market is a lot better in NH than most of the country. The market isn't as strong in MA but there are a lot more people in MA so there are more overall jobs. The pay also tends to be a little better as you get closer to Boston. So for example, someone in IT might make 64K in Nashua, NH, 67k in Burlington, MA and 70k in Boston. If you work in MA, you have to pay MA income taxes for the days you work in MA, though. And, the closer to Boston you get, the more traffic there is.

Imagine it working like the NYC market except on a smaller scale (only 5 million people in the Boston MA-NH-RI market).
