So everyone gets a free house?

I read earlier in this thread that in order to share in the communcal food everyone has to work. I assumed that was for housing too.

Can you give me a free house even if I do not move there?

To get food you work, to get money you work. To get a house, you buy a plot. Unless you don't want an Earthship & Geodome Smiley

Yes.
We will have people educated in the field of psychology there. And if we don't have someone that can write prescriptions we will have at least one that can provide alternative treatment, and transportation to a real doctor if we don't have one.

You get a house, a free computer and a free TV. For $10,000. You are quite generous with your large wealth. Are you broke right now because you just gave away Teslas to a whole neighborhood or something?

I'm broke because I give my life to everyone. And no one wants to hire the guy that has a past marijuana charges, even in Colorado. Since it's legal here it makes it look like I did something bad, but I used to live in Texas. It's a LOT stricter there.

Ahh, from the way you talk it sounds like you have several billion dollars. So all of this free stuff you plan on giving away will need to be produced by the people that move to your town.

Have you ever considered running for Congress?

Lol. Have you read a single post on this thread. FUNDRAISING HAS BEEN DISCUSSED.
And I haven't even finished making the videos. We aren't even done bringing up topics, how can you act like you know anything about what is going on? You have seen 48 hours of what I have been able to get online between replying to your bitching. Not enough to form any kind of opinion, unless you are just a die hard fan of your own hometown and just can't handle hearing about plans for a new one.

Yes, I have seen that you plan on planting a garden and creating some fuel from corn. And the billions you will make from writing for Devcoins that you get 1 per 1000 words which are worth about a penny each.

Why even ask for $10,000 from people in the first place? Why not just create all of your wealth through mining and distilling and writing for Devcoins and buy the property yourself. Then just give people plots for free. I mean, a house, computer, TV, free printing and publishing, welfare for citizens and veterans, non-traditional education...that is probably much more than $10k per person, plus your private island, radio studio, university, radio studio, bus fleet, restaurant, state of the art medical facility, hatchery, man made lake, church, government paid salaried church employees, etc...that surely comes out to at least a few billion dollars. $2 million is just a drop in the bucket. You have the fundraising for all of this all figured out. Just throw in free plots too. Hell, I am sure people would be fine with just half a plot for free...that is only $5,000. Maybe they would forgo the free computer and TV in exchange.

Or are you planning on making the people of the town work and not get paid for their labor?

Sounds like you've read like 10% of the fundraising discussion, and have an overwhelming amount to say about that 10%. So you are now being ignored unless I see someone quoting you posting after informing yourself properly.

Actually.. You get one SHARE. Is more than one DevCoin.

(Actually, I'm going to abandon the thread. Don't really want to get involved in the debate this time.)

There is no debate, he is uninformed and over voiced, so has been ignored.

Videos and info will continue to be posted, I'm not even half way done Smiley

Because I don't feel like wading through page after page of stoner logic, while I remember some money tiers and something about a single seat spacecraft, where does the money come from? Devcoins?

You realize that that is going to hilariously fail, right?

Then how about try just reading the first post for starters.
And watching the videos that are in that posts. That is EVERYTHING you need to see in this thread before you are informed enough to start actually getting into real discussion, or discrediting of me. Either way, you need to inform yourself before you do it.

I'm taking a break from video making, but there are at least 40 more coming Smiley
So we've only scratched the surface.

I will probably have all the information for town plans posted in like a month.

And I say WE because there is already a group. We have 200 members on Facebook supporting us, and they are from all over the country.

Oh, awesome, Facebook likes. We all know how Facebook likes change the world.

Not likes. Members of an active event. Active meaning they are responding and waiting for projects and jobs.

I'm waiting too.  And i'll even help with the ground work.  I've rented a couple of 26-foot U-Hauls & they're now packed tight with my best slaves.  I watered them before loading & tossed in some old bread & rutabaga to keep them quiet, but if your place is more than a day's drive from Kentucky, well, I just don't want to think about it.  Anyhow, they're plenty strong & smart enough, so whatever work you got, all i'm asking is you feed 'em good & pay me .01BTC/head/day.  That's as low as i'm going.  Now where's your place?  I want to git going 'for my drivers get too loaded.

What's up, dood?  Gotta tell my guys where to unload!   Need you location ASAP!

The mission of the town is: Freedom, as guaranteed by the constitution of America

Other projects that will be completed before, and/or inside Bitcoin Town:
Bitcoin Restaurant- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=217610.0
Bitcoin TV Show- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=212562.0
Bitcoin Church/Charity- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=213405.0


All you need to start a town in 51% of the people's vote, and a written constitution or some other founding document. If we invest in our own town we can be the founders, and with BTC it will make it easier for us to come together from around the world to get this done. As well as not worry about paying taxes as long as we don't exchange cash. And we could have the elected town leaders pay federal taxes and do all our fiat exchanges for us, so that our "no tax town" system is viable.

And you only need 6 acres of people to agree... So I looked online and there are patches of land that are 600 acres (nearly 1 square mile) for sale in New Mexico. If 200 people each put in $10,000 (or equivalent in BTC) the property would be ours (I think this could be accomplished in 1 year). And at that point we could start using the land to farm and produce things and anyone who could afford a house or an Earthship could start building, while anyone else can rent their land out to earn money, or sell it (we will all come together and vote on what the land can and cannot be used for during this time) and once we have some communal money we can help people build Earthships and start working on Solar power and getting a super solid internet connection. Then we could start building FPGAs and ASICs, while we farm and produce what we can.

I feel New Mexico would be the best place to start something like this for a few reasons:

1. Billy the Kid ran out the Illuminati by starting a war against the corrupt "Justice System" where the people were literally shooting at cops.

2. the Freemasons messed up with their farming methods which was the reason for the "dust bowl". So all the people that would oppose Bitcoin are gone (central bankers and such).

3. Land is cheap in New Mexico.

4. It is a good place for affordable "Earthship" living, and could easily accommodate regular housing as well.

5. Tons of sun all year round, so we could try to start the community with some solar power, and work towards making it all solar powered. And anyone who wanted to farm could.
 

Once the town got started we would buy a some tractors, and use them to build better roads and farm better. Then we can start opening gift shops and things like that, and eventually work on starting our own franchises, or bringing a few to town and accepting bitcoin.

But we could make it a town where no one pays taxes, and the "town government" is nothing but a service.

We will be attempting to start a restaurant, so that the town has a good place to eat and food supply ready to move in right when we get there Smiley
If we can't start the restaurant before the town, we will start it IN town once we have a small community.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=217610.msg2288125#msg2288125
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxuPoed0H7E

The things that we plan to have on the menu so far are these:

Pancakes
Eggs/Omelets
Burgers (REAL ones, not like McDonalds)
Funnel Cake
French Fries
Carne Asada
Burritos (and every other variation of tortilla and contents, which means chips and salsa too)
Noodles
Sandwhiches
A Salad Bar
And anyone involved's "specialty"

For the people that could not afford their own house, this is the kind of house we would be building as public work (public work is for people who need money).

They are called EarthShips





The outline of an Earthship is made with old tires for insulation. The tires are framed with wood, and filled with concrete, some people fill the tires with soda cans or dirt, then concrete. Then some people put soda cans on the outside of the tires in the concrete also.





There are many benefits of Earthship living



We will also offer publicly built Geodomes for greenhouses and living.



We will also offer trailers to bury and use as basements, or use above ground as housing:


And our EarthShips will be different than most:

1. Each person will have at least three acres, so we won't be making small ones.

2. Geodomes outside will be used as green houses, making more room in the larger EarthShips

3. Trailers will be used to make basements, allowing for WAY more space.


And again, an outside company will be contracted for regular building, these will just be built for anyone that wants publically built housing.
You only get a Earthship if you want a FREE house Smiley
