[[Alex Barron]] suggests the following, "There are many people who write me who suggest that they cannot move to [[James Wesley Rawles|JWR]]’s perfect [[self-sufficient]] remote, defensible [[survivalist retreat|homestead]]. The reasons are often similar, money and wife issues. My recommendation to them is often similar. Think of moving to a [[small town values|small town]] or even the “big [[city]]” in a [[red state]]. It is my opinion that [[conservative]] more [[traditional values|traditional]] leaning states with balanced budgets and a “[[libertarian|leave me alone]]” style will weather what comes next better than many more [[progressive]], heavily [[national debt|indebted]], people are use to a [[entitlement mentality|safety net from cradle to grave mentality]]. Would you rather be in [[Los Angeles]] or [[Boise]] when a significant [[depression|economic downturn]] starts? BTW, the first time I visited Boise I thought “where is the city.” Then when we went out to drink later own, I was like, when do we get downtown?  They were like, you are “downtown.” Boise doesn’t qualify as a [[suburb]] of a major city like [[Chicago]], but it is one of the fastest growing cities in [[the West]]. When [[Idaho]], [[Montana]] or [[Wyoming]] says “big city” it is not what first comes to mind."<ref>[[Alex Barron|Barron, Alex]], "[https://charlescarrollsociety.com/2015/01/19/orofino-idaho-prepper-homesteading/ Orofino, Idaho #prepper #homesteading]".

==Walking to Freedom Project==

'''Walking to Freedom''' is an initiative created by [[libertarian]] [[survivalist]] [[podcast]]er [[Jack Spirko]] ([[The Survival Podcast]]) where [[citizen]]s are encouraged to pull up stakes and to move to a more open and [[free state]] -- to [[vote with your feet | vote with their feet]]. States are broken down into two categories, the "naughty list and all the rest. People moving out of [[:Category:Oppression|oppressive]] states are asked to post a "goodbye letter" addressed to the state and state government officials regarding their decision to move out of their state. On the [[website]]'s (http://walkingtofreedom.com) [[Forum]] groups for the "non-naughty" states are used to welcome people considering or actually moving to that state.
