Pay Pal founder and early Facebook investor Peter Thiel has given $1.25 million to an initiative to create floating libertarian countries in international waters, according to a profile of the billionaire in Details magazine.
Thiel has been a big backer of the Seasteading Ins ute, which seeks to build sovereign nations on oil rig-like platforms to occupy waters beyond the reach of law-of-the-sea treaties. The idea is for these countries to start from scratch--free from the laws, regulations, and moral codes of any existing place. Details says the experiment would be "a kind of floating petri dish for implementing policies that libertarians, stymied by indifference at the voting booths, have been unable to advance: no welfare, looser building codes, no minimum wage, and few restrictions on weapons."

s up? You mean like posting without doing a search?
It seems like these little islands would be pretty easily detroyed.
exhile? I would put them in a sort of circus maximus and let the criminals fight for their freedom
sounds like this place called the U.S.A under a republican
Sounds like tax haven with legalized slavery...errr, cheap help.no welfare, looser building codes, no minimum wage, and few restrictions on weapons
Looser building codes? In the Bay Area? Seriously? Has he never seen what happened there before?

Wow, epic photograph.
(lots of "Wow" from me today)
Hope they ask Kevin Costner for tips on how to keep it afloat!
Actually I hope they hold Kevin Costner underwater until he grows gills.
