Why aren't we all members of the Free State Project?

You know, I'm thinking it might finally be time for desperate measures. I'm thinking we start a charity fund that FSP men can contribute to that helps subsidize women who need help making the move.

This sausage fest has to end.

PS-Don't take it personally, guys, happy to have you here as well. Especially considering the average caliber of person we've had so far.
 
Your sentiment is appreciated, but do we want to attract the type of person who needs a subsidy to pick up their life?
 
Sorry, I was born and raised in Kansas and I love my State too much to leave. I'll just wait for the FSP ideals to catch on and I'll do my best to support them here. Hell, I already do that.

Yeah, just like matching donations, I won't jump in unless others do first.:p

1) You can sign up as a friend of the FSP and get occasional emails and a monthly newsletter keeping you up to date on what's going on.

2) You can also sign up as a participant with your own triggers for moving. (One example is if REAL ID is passed in your state and not in NH.) If your trigger is not met, you are not committed to moving.

I assume Ian means someone who does not value personal initiative over dependence on others.

Free-riders, in other words. (See part '1.2': "The free-rider problem appears when some members of the community find that they can reap the benefits of the project without contributing their share.")

I have found the FSP community very generous to those who need help if the person in question shows some type of individual initiative to begin with.

Ok. Start a Colorado Free State movement and keep me updated on its success.

Allow me to take a wild shot in the dark as to what state you are currently living in: Is it, oh I don't know...Colorada? That couldn't be why you say that's where everyone else should move is it? Because it would be the easiest for you?

We're not a bunch of New Hampshire people who want people to move to where we are. We're people who are moving to New Hampshire ourselves because we believe in the project. That's the difference between us doers and the talkers else saying "hey let's start a FSP where I live."

If I thought Free State ideals would be catching on elsewhere, I wouldn't have uprooted my life to move to New Hampshire. This country is moving in the opposite direction of freedom so I wouldn't count on it.

Sign up as a friend of the FSP though and keep updated on what's going on.
 
Long thread, so I apologize if its already been said... the relatively low population of NH makes it easier to have a political influence. It is true that there are other states like NV, MT, AK, etc with streaks but I am really considering making the move.

That was one of the many factors considered in the "great state debate" of 2003 leading up to the state-selection vote, all archived on our website.

Glad to hear it. I wish all these people talking tough about how we need a revolution would get off their butt and make a tiny sacrifice...if they're as willing to make the ultimate sacrifice as they so claim.
 
Secession should be the ultimate goal. Hopefully an independent New Hampshire will inspire other states to decide their own future.
