The Stark and Trim American Frontier

§1 The Americans of this Republic and organization must move to Alaska. We will move to the Matanuska-Susitna (hereafter often referred to as Mat-Su) region of Alaska, within that borough.

§2 The members of our organization shall purchase land therein, and make a home base for ourselves. The land of Alaska, and particularly the Mat-Su region, presents itself as an ideal location for our home base: free, of the frontier, affordable, and ripe with rich natural resources. Its freedom is fit for our liberty. It is also uniquely situated far enough into the frontier that it grants us this liberty, yet—as this proposal shall highlight—near enough to the major city of Anchorage that it vests us with contact, exposure, and fruits to pick to manifest our continued expansion and joy.

§3 The land we will purchase will be undeveloped, primarily. The members of our organization shall purchase said land in the following manner. Each individual member of the Republic, notwithstanding individuals within who wish to form groups and live in one dwelling or similar domicile, shall purchase a suitable plot of acreage in Mat-Su in their own name, for the purposes of establishing it as part of our veritable home base in Alaska. Members shall not purchase it in the name of this organization, nor deed it to the organization at large; the land should be purchased in the Member's own name, and owned themselves. This bypasses significant regulations and grants us autonomy. Instead, each member shall simply pledge herein and afterward that their ownership of this land is intended to be held for the broader purposes of establishing a unified home base that—albeit its parcels be owned by the individuals of our Republic—are united in our allegiance to our mission, our contract, and our friendship. This will form the home base of the American Republic.

§4 Each member shall, in a manner to be determined by their own wit and this Republic's cooperation, construct their own dwellings and establishments on their property. We should largely assist each other in doing so, yet retain our independence in ensuring we are all self-sustaining. These establishments should align with the goals and virtues of the American Republic.

§5 The untapped land of Alaska in Mat-Su being rich and ripe for our fruitfulness, yet it being so stark in comparison to what many of us may be used to, a means to simultaneously acclimate ourselves to this new move, and provide us with resources to facilitate our construction, must be given. Therefore, the Members of the American Republic will either purchase some already established domicile in Anchorage to assist in said means, or strongly look into doing so. This could be an apartment, a condominium, a house, or some other means of established habitation in or near the city of Anchorage. Yet, no Member shall purchase a form of strongly established habitation in the Mat-Su region where we set up our home base. The Mat-Su region is the place where we shall build our home base by our hands and wit, to serve as a symbol of this Republic's ingenuity and liberty. While we should purchase already established habitation in Anchorage to facilitate that construction and provide some ground for us initially in a city for things such as materials, that habitation must be distinct and separate from the one we shall completely construct anew in Mat-Su.

This means that to buy property in Mat-Su that comes equipped with a luxurious cabin, a large house with many utilities, is unacceptable under this proposal. And additionally, the established domicile that is acquired in Anchorage must be in—or at least directly in proximity to—that specific city of Anchorage. One cannot purchase a cabin or apartment in some other city than Anchorage, far from it; nor purchase one undeveloped acreage in Mat-Su, and another developed one in or near Mat-Su. The established habitation must be located within Anchorage. This is for strategic reasons involving the concentration of economic and political power in Anchorage that this Republic plans to profit from, and use for our righteous ends both during and after the initial construction period of our home base in Mat-Su. To achieve this, we must all be able to congregate, during those times, within that same fixed point, and have the compulsory means of a unified physical source of habitation in it to do so.

§6 The purpose of this move is to grant us liberty. The American Republic will defend, renew, and fulfill the Constitution of this Republic and the actual United States of America. Yet, we cannot achieve liberty when we are physically scattered, when we are tied down by the restrictive laws of our jobs and our communities, and when the tools of our daily lives prevent the fruition of justice and wit. By moving to the last frontier of America, we will be able to build our own lives; and, both literally and figuratively, achieve political liberty and autonomy by removing such restrictions and lack of unity. We shall not only govern ourselves within the political autonomy the First Amendment recognizes in us, but—profiting from it—proceed to consolidate our position and extend our reign. We will establish the home base, and use it as a symbol of our independence, then go around first Anchorage; then the rest of the States, retaining our home base as the place of prime operations and solidarity, to enforce our political will and inspire change through example.

§7 The reason for the self-construction of our Mat-Su home base is to grant us and spur independence, free from the bonds which pre-established habitation and other services might tie us to. What we can build with our own hands, we can maintain; and this autonomy in personhood will vest in us autonomy in our political objectives.

§8 The pre-established habitation in Anchorage should be conceived of as a temporary stay during the construction of our real settlement in Mat-Su. After our settlement is built, the original habitation may or may not be kept, but it should not be the primary residence, instead only a foothold for expeditionary political operations in Anchorage; where we shall live in our established, self-built base in Mat-Su.

§9 The next move is political expeditions and missions, after thoroughly establishing our presence and base in Mat-Su, across Anchorage first, then especially—widespread change being our goal—to the lower 48 and Hawaii.
