This is a scheme to move 20,000 liberty activists to a single location, New Hampshire in the United States, in order to concentrate their powers in terms of voting and activism, and also to propagate a culture and community of liberty. It appeals to me because it's actually about getting things done, and in a timely ...

How has the United States boxed itself into an extremely dangerous corner by becoming increasingly reliant on our historic adversary, the Communist Chinese, for critical resources! As one example, the United States faces the ever-present potential for China to dump the US treasury bonds it already owns on the global financial markets, or to boycott our treasury auctions all together.
