Truly interesting point, It directly made me think of an article I read some days ago about the possibility of “Freedom cities” run by corporations… It could definitely be the door they use to make this kind of future possible.
I just looked into this, and yeah, Disney has definitely tried to build their own cities. They had the original EPCOT concept in the 60s, interesting to think about how these experiments could probably be the influence of Thiel’s project, I’m guessing he will try to use a similar framework but this time with the administration and population full support.
Look into “Company towns” a bit. It could be done right, but putting that into the hands of the current oligarchs would be a spell for destruction
But I like your sentiment. I actually am planning to start a non-profit apartment complex and I’m trying to get my employer to be a primary investor. I plan on offering them a temporary exclusivity deal if they’ll let me build close enough to where we work but I’ll have to look into the laws about that. Exclusivity deals are a lil weird around housing, might not actually be able to offer that
