"Sorry, fellows, the rebellion is off. We couldn't get a rebellion permit."
might I make a suggestion then? I thought this was a very reasonable looking offer and there is plenty of land to go around. The area sits on top of an aquifer etc etc.. Worth checking out I think for purpose of the ideas in this thread.

you are looking at parcels of around 40 acres, lowest priced parcels are 22.5k with owner financing 10% down 15 years, with potential for better rates etc with more down.
The other thing I was looking at to go along with this is the kit cabins. I liked this one in particular for the DIY nature of it keeping costs low, and because of the modular design allows for easy expansion down the road.

Property tax isn't high in Oklahoma. At least I've never heard anyone complain. I think they get you at the revenue office when you tag your vehicle. Its still not that bad compared to a lot of other states. And mineral rights are pretty much out of the question anywhere unless you have some deep pockets. There's a LOT of oil in Oklahoma.

I worked with a couple of old crazy Cowboys from about those parts in the mid 80 's. They were both from the two States , but right across from ea other, they were pretty entertaining , solid guys in a pinch and both pretty good with a dollar and I imagine getting pd cash before I meet them . They never mentioned that , but, makes sense .
Hope to have contract done by mid September.
Out of every one hundred men they send us, ten should not even be here. Eighty will do nothing but serve as targets for the enemy. Nine are real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, upon them depends our success in battle. But one, ah the one, he is a real warrior, and he will bring the others back from battle alive.

Launch pads, runways, facilities: NASA’s grand shuttle sell-off continues
http://arstechnica.com/science/2013/...off-continues/
Earlier this week, NASA announced that two commercial space companies have placed bids on one of the mobile launch platforms at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The platform is one of three structures originally designed and built for Project Apollo back in the 1960s; the hardware was redesigned and refitted for use with the Space Shuttle in the late 1970s and was in use continually until the Shuttle program's end in 2010.
The two companies bidding on the launch platforms are Elon Musk's SpaceX and Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin. Both companies would use the platforms as part of their own rocket launch efforts, and both companies have their eyes set on far larger NASA assets: Launch Complex 39A.
Launch Complex 39, with its two pads (LC39A and LC39B), is NASA's largest and most sophisticated space launch facility. Like most of NASA's crown jewels, the site was constructed to support Project Apollo and repurposed into the Shuttle era. Pad 39A is the southern of the two and hosted 12 Saturn V launches and 80 shuttle launches; pad 39B was used for one Saturn V flight, 4 Saturn 1B flights, 53 shuttle launches, and the single Ares flight.
Since the start of Project Apollo, LC39 has been the only NASA facility used to launch astronauts into space. It has comprehensive support resources in place—refitting and processing buildings, the enormous Vehicle Assembly Building, fuel tankage, and all the other myriad systems required to support manned rocket launches. Combined with the site's enormous size, LC39 is prime commercial space launching territory, and both SpaceX and Blue Origin want in. SpaceX reportedly wants exclusive access to pad 39A, while Blue Origin wants to run the pad as a multi-tenant site.
Also being divested is the shuttle runway and Shuttle Landing Facility at the Kennedy Space Center. This particular asset is being brought under the control of Space Florida, a state-backed public/private partnership responsible for aerospace-related business development in Florida. In a conversation with Ars, a Space Florida spokesperson clarified that Space Florida isn't buying or leasing the runway but rather will assume control of it from NASA and will "manage its utilization."
There are several companies interested in using the Shuttle Landing Facility for operations. Although Space Florida is currently under NDA and could not disclose any names, indications are that companies are interested in it for a Virgin Galactic-style suborbital aircraft.
Space Florida is already heavily involved in the disposition of NASA's shuttle assets; they are responsible for the refit of Orbital Processing Facility 3 (which was used to maintain Shuttles between missions) for commercial use. They also manage two smaller launch sites at Cape Canaveral: Launch Complex 36 and Launch Complex 46.
NASA currently operates without a single operational man-rated spacecraft or launch vehicle. This will continue to be the case until at least 2017 when the Space Launch System is scheduled to make its maiden flight. If all goes according to schedule, SLS will then carry its first astronauts into orbit in 2021.

The last time I was over there I had to get my mom out of the path of a moose because she was just standing there as it was coming her way. There are plenty of moose there, wild turkey etc.. Unfortunately the elk population seems to have dropped due to the introduction of wolves.

I'm for the idea, there is strength in numbers - maybe make it quasi though, set up a network of liberty people/liberty communities to share goods thru the mail, it's barter and/or gifts from one to another. Set up a network of people all across the Country and Globe. Maybe use bitcoin =) Maybe have a monthly newsletter or blog, don't be overly paranoid methinks because there is nothing wrong with it.

Find a nice clean small river and have pristine water. So important - you'll be resistant to any droughts
Just bumping this up to see where everyone is at on this nowadays. I still want to do something but a legal issue with a family member has strained finances for now. Hubby still not really on board. Anyone else?
I love the idea, but I already have 15 acres--I'd buy in as an investment though.

'We endorse the idea of voluntarism; self-responsibility: Family, friends, and churches to solve problems, rather than saying that some monolithic government is going to make you take care of yourself and be a better person. It's a preposterous notion: It never worked, it never will. The government can't make you a better person; it can't make you follow good habits.' - Ron Paul 1988

...the familiar ritual of institutional self-absolution...
...for protecting them, by mock trial, from punishment...
Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.

“The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found. The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner
