For the regulars, this is hilarious on its face: Radar found a reason -- ANY reason, really -- to call the Free State Project bogus and a potential failure, for a minor philosophical point that won't really apply to the FSP until, probably, decades into its existence.

(We understand that "any minor point" can be turned into an immensely large point by Radar, through the application of his odd razor: assuming every other matter solved, THIS matter would be the stumbling block ergo THIS matter is huge.)

A large number of Libby philosophical purists are not really purists at all, but compulsive contrarians. Another segment are church ladies ready to show how everyone else has gone astray. Liberty is their religion and they spend their time in evangelist mode.

The Free State Project has picked New Hampshire to move its 20,000 libbies to. My family welcomes you, please enjoy some maple candy and learn to split firewood. Anyone looking for some awesomely beautiful acreage in Franconia, with the perfectly pure water of the Gale River running right through it, should speak with me directly. You can have better than Poland Spring water running right through your taps. 200 people in Franconia would run the entire goddamn town since the population is about 500 anyway.
