People can buy small, one-mile-across islands for a few thousand bucks, and then it's totally theirs. As in, they have complete sovereignty, and can even become their own official country. Then, they don't have to pay any taxes, or be in any way subservient to any existing government, unless they choose to create their own.
Should we all pitch-in for the purchase of "Aspie Island", (or "Aspergia")? We could decide on our form of government -- that is, if we don't prefer anarchy. The point is it's totally up to us!
If we choose to have government officials, we can elect them from here, or other Aspie forums. Haha, wouldn't THAT be the ultimate poll?! ! "Whom would you wish as our leader?" Such a poll should include the option of "No one", for the anarchists.
We can decide on a currency (called the "asp" or something), and we can open our borders to the emigration of fellow Aspies around the world. We'd need some foreign language experts, but that should be no problem, as some WP members already speak several languages.
Other ideas??
