If you like the idea of being surrounded by lazy, entitled, talentless brown losers who can't speak English and hate you for being better than they will ever be, consider Detroit, or San Antonio. Detroit's fucking freezing. San Antonio is hot as fucking hell. The people don't matter. I never interact with them anyway.

Are you saying "Don't buy near Federal lands" or "Don't buy Federal land"? Your first sentence is kind of vaguely worded. Quoting: Windsage I recently bought a property in northern Idaho that is near hundreds of square miles of Federal and State wilderness, but I own the house and land outright. Are you saying this is unwise? Can you be more detailed about what the problem is or could be? I am surrounded by mountains, timber, wildlife, rivers and streams, and self sufficient neighbors, 12 minutes from hospital, six minutes from supermarket. I looked for four years for just the right spot. So I am very interested in what you have to say; I just can't figure out what your warning is. You can't buy federal land, you lease it, usually for 99 years. Buying next to federal land is a great idea, you wont have close neighbors. Most federal lands are reserved for nature and no building is allowed. Thanks for the clarification. |

If you want to have an idea of federal lands try the below link and know you can rent the acreage but the government owns the land and it would not be wise to build upon rented land. Federal lands must be researched as upon close inspection the land might be broken into squares like a checkerboard of public freely owned land and BLM land Other states fall under Conservation Easements meaning you cannot do as you wish with the land. Make sure the land you wish to purchase is free of covenants and restrictions otherwise the land is not yours.

This is not about proving who is better than whom. Although generally Puerto Ricans have a nasty reputation, not unearned. Did you see all the aid after the hurricane that wasn't distributed, or that was distributed and then put in the trash, and then many of them continued to complain and insult Trump? F them. |

I don't hear much about flooding from FL or PR. That's more wind damage. PR is not a bad place to build. It's an expensive place to live, all considered, because everything from the mainland has to be shipped there. If we have to support poor economically unproductive people, we should be doing that on the mainland where it costs us less. Living on such an island is a luxury, and rebuilding it in place is also a luxury. We shouldn't pay whatever it takes. We should invite those who cannot stay there to leave and be helped on the mainland, clear the debt thru bankruptcy, and then without any further encouragement those strong enough will be attracted back by their own interest and ideas, to build a new and much better Puerto Rico with their own money and energy, the same way things are built everywhere else. |
