Yeah but I wouldn’t move to a new city in rural montana until it has schools, hospitals, firefighters, police, trashmen, and maybe a dozen other services that require a local market or a local tax base to support.
- WrtCdEvrydy 6y agoWhat if there was a $20,000 per year remote tax write-off? Work in our city and get a $20,000 federal tax write off...?
- wolco 6y agoThat's what happens in northern Canada.
- blaser-waffle 6y agoNot just northern, try "central" Canada -- still pretty dang far north compared to other places.
- dwighttk 6y agoso the federal government is building these cities?
- CyberDildonics 6y ago30 minutes north of san franscisco means you don't even have paved roads or cell phone service. I'm not sure why you think you would need to be in rural montana to plan some tall buildings.
- BurningFrog 6y ago> 30 minutes north of san franscisco... California won't allow building a park bench there, much less a new major city.
- mc32 6y agoI think Lucasfilm found out how much a counterforce there is to building things. Also a community center...
- CyberDildonics 6y agoYou realize they have two buildings there right?
- CyberDildonics 6y agoI think you are missing the point that there is a lot of free land. My question was why someone would bring up moving to rural montana, when most major cities are surrounded by uninhabited land. California is a state. You might be thinking of Marin county, which surrounds only about 12 miles of the 101 freeway, so this is nonsense from multiple angles.
- BurningFrog 6y ago> My question was why someone would bring up moving to rural montana, when most major cities are surrounded by uninhabited land I'll repeat my answer with less sarcasm: Because building new cities there is not legally allowed. It's physically, but not regulatorily possible.
- CyberDildonics 6y agoYou chose to ignore the actual point I was making that close ouskirts of major cities are still uninhabited and there is no need to go to 'rural montana'. Any large construction needs to go an approval process, the article talks about the same thing. This article is about a giant project, the point isn't about any single place that would be more or less resistant. It is about the fact that large amounts of unused land with close proximity to major cities is common.
