I didn't say I supported the ideals of those involved, but I do have to congratulate them on using their own money to go after their own dreams.

LOL!!!!!! I say we go CONQUER them. Sounds like their ideology leaves them lacking on defensive weaponry. We could vanquish them with MEAN TWEETS alone. But, let them crowdfund the desalination plant first.
Remember.... It’s not Who’s going to let us?
It’s Who’s going to stop us?
It is a novel idea. But, not terribly feasible.
Colonizing Sentinel Island in the Indian Ocean would at least give us a habitable island.
However, I hear the locals are very opposed to immigration.

Quote from UN Yourgender 21. Ya damn racist!

It's fine to criticize the ideology of those involved, but I'm celebrating their action: they wanted something and went out and got it. And they used their own money to do it rather than looting it from others.

No question that one acre isn't going to support more than one-two families. But it is an example of someone following their goals with money to create their own utopia - whatever that might be. How many can say the same?
