[QUOTE="Janx, post: 6052061, member: 8835"] yeah, I'm not sure why anybody would want to leave the US, we get a pretty good deal on defense, infrastructure, and civil rights. those are pretty handy, and I'm wary of what Aeolius could provide me if I moved in. I think that's the problem of all such situations, each of us is dubious of anybody else taking care of things and not being a total nutjob cult leader. Whereas MY island nation will be 50% better than Aelious. We'll have Kool-Aid time every day. Participation is mandatory of course... :) I think the lighthouse island would be better than a boat-thing. You can always build new buildings, leaving the lighthouse alone until you can tackle cleaning it up. But as an island, you'd want to have the right smurfs to take care of basics: security smurf to patrol and identify external threats medical smurf to keep everyone healthy and treat problems electronic smurf to keep the radios and hardware up handy smurf to build and fix buildings/plumbing/etc how good is the technology for hydroponics and stuff to grow food?
