RE: The Current State of Seasteading: Building Permanent Oceanic Colonies

in #libertarianism8 years ago

I did hear back in 2013 that they were planning to anchor ships just outside US waters, near San Francisco, to allow IT engineers to work there without having to have a H1B visa.

But if your engineer isn't onshore wouldn't it be easier to have him work in India and telecommute?

Also what happens if there is trouble? The Pacific is a ring of fire, with regular tsunamis rolling across etc. I suppose the ship could up anchor and try to sail away from trouble if they got enough notice, but what if the earthquake is on the American side of the Pacific?
