I found my way to the Free State Project through wikipedia, but wasn't really feeling the whole New Hampshire thing, but was pretty psyched when I found a Wyoming one, because I've been considering moving there anyway, but not anytime soon.
I'm 18 years old, grew up the first 15 years of my life in southern California, then we moved to Idaho Falls, ID. My parents had been big listeners of Rush Limbaugh all my life, and continue to be, but I didn't much care about politics until they moved here and started listening to Glenn Beck, and I became a full flung "conservative" ... that is, until I read Ezra Taft Benson's Proper Roll of Government, I believe at the suggestion of my mother, and that causes be to rethink my political views entirely. Basically what I learned from that is that man has 4 rights, the right to life, liberty, and property, and the right to defend these rights, and in the words of John Locke “For nobody can transfer to another more power than he has in himself, and nobody has an absolute arbitrary power over himself, or over any other, to destroy his own life, or take away the life of property of another”, making the only roll of government protecting these rights.
Now I’ll be leaving on a mission for my church in a few months – yes I am a Mormon – and then I’ll probably going to college afterwards, so It’ll be at least 2 years til I can move.
But this looks like a pretty sweet place so I’ll hang around til I go.
