If you ever see a Libertarian, be sure to give them this helpful tip

The Seasteading Institute is an organization dedicated to developing an offshore artificial island where Government regulations cannot be enforced. John Galt would most certainly approve. So why aren't Libertarians rushing to donate to this cause? They should. Their dream world awaits them, all they need to do is take action!

Present this to them and make sure to ask why they decline to pursue their dream. This should be a fun little hunt.

No taxes, lots of guns, no messy government regulations, just lawless unfettered markets! Get going libertarians and take Ron Paul and his stupid offspring with you.

that the GOP harbors...these countries are run strikingly close to what they percieve as a utopian, Ayn Randian, free for fucking all society.

Head out GOP. Take your corporations that think the grass is greener and boogy on over there. No more Uncle Sam to back up your failed banks, or cover your ass when the Pirates attack your factories.

It's a blue sky project, designed to get start-up money that will all be spent by the founder. Nothing like that will ever exist in reality, for a number of reasons, weather being the main one.

Didn't they ever see "Waterworld"?? I guess they would consider that a Libertarian paradise, as well!
