Liberty-Loving Landlubbers

A follow up on this post about the Seasteading Institute's upcoming floating Burning Man, Empherisle. For land-lubbing liberty lovers, an on-shore conference in San Francisco September 28-30 will precede the floating anarchist fun:

Speakers include:

•   Patri Friedman: Opening Keynote (Executive Director, The Seasteading Institute)
•   Peter Thiel: Back To The Future (Philanthropist and PayPal co-founder)
•   Paul Romer: Charter Cities (Senior Fellow, Stanford Center for International Development and Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research)
•   David Friedman: Legal Systems Very Different From Our Own (Professor, Santa Clara University)
•   Joe Lonsdale: Ocean-Based Business Models (Chairman of the Board, The Seasteading Institute)
•   Sean Hastings: Experiences with HavenCo and SeaLand (Co-founder, HavenCo)
•   Erwin Strauss: How To Start Your Own Country (Author, How To Start Your Own Country)

Because what makes an awesome floating party better than warming up with some breakout sessions and two—two!—Friedmans for the price of one?

I really want to go, and it's in my neighborhood. But I've got other events that weekend that I'm morally obligated to attend instead.

"two-two!-Friedmans for the price of one?"

An incredibly good deal. Sadly, they are becoming more scarce...

I prefer this... http://www.theyachtweek.com/

more anarchy, more hot girls, fewer Friedmans

Some of these are quite cheap.... if you have a boat/seaplane... you can have your own country for 100.000$... ok throw in an extra 20k for guns & ammo just to make sure.
