As if a corporation isn’t just another form of hierarchical organization with departments and redundancy.
Ah, there it is.
They also want to build on Federal land, which is mostly national parks. So obviously conservation is not a part of our future.
And this is just a fucking speed run into a cyberpunk dystopia. Like an extra stupid mix of Snowcrash and BioShock. If the Federal government allows a bunch of technofascists to build independent cities free of Federal regulatory oversight, then what’s stopping them from just not being part of the US at that point? They won’t be paying taxes, they won’t be represented in Congress, and they won’t be subject to Federal law, so why should we allow this?
