- jdale27 9y agoI was thinking something similar. Though rather than a billionaire, some enterprising libertarian / anarcho-capitalist folks could move there and push the city further in that direction by simply using legitimate democratic processes. Sort of like a smaller-scale version of the Free State Project in New Hampshire. Though maybe a billionaire could provide some seed funding to induce the initial migration.
