1. It's a damn shame.

Much better coverage than any media outlet in the state. K&R

2. An excellent article

So Sorens proposed that 20,000 libertarian-minded US citizens "establish residence in a small state and take over the state government". Members would pledge to work at "reducing government to the minimal functions of protecting life, liberty and property".

The Free State Project (FSP) was founded soon thereafter. In 2003, FSP participants voted to move to the northeastern state of New Hampshire, in part because of its low taxes and few regulations. Some participants also pointed out that New Hampshire, with a deep-water port and international border with Canada, could be a viable independent state if it were to secede from the rest of the US.

Lucky us, to be chosen for takeover. Well if just a few thousand people can take over a state, then the rest of the 1 million plus people in New Hampshire can take it back!
