GG you commies always have such silly ideas. Have you never understood that it's better to work together with people to achieve common aims? I know Tradable Citizenship, like joint common stock, CDMA and cyberspace weren't invented until after the Dark Ages, but they are a great way of improving life beyond what you suggested.

There are all sorts of ways of doing things which were never done before. You and your "Bring back slavery" brigade are holding onto a past which was not very good.

I know those things are complex concepts and they can be intellectually challenging, but they are worth the effort. Now, your project for the weekend is to come up with 10 reasons why Tradable Citizenship is a good idea. Come on, you know you can do it if you try really hard.

PS: I should point out that if NZ wasn't surrounded by ocean, there would be an armed border somewhere and people are not free to flee their serfdom. Like any garden variety slave, they will be captured and returned to their owners; if not used as body parts by those who catch them illegally in their countries. I realize you might think that's a minor detail, but it would disrupt people adopting your plan. <take any bearing, walk, stop only when there are no people around, build hovel, shiver in dark, charge self toll each time you have dopey idea > With ideas like yours, I guess you already have a government job somewhere. They need talent and imagination like that.
