In this thread we discuss the comparative merits of different political jurisdictions, and issues specific to any person who wishes to relocate to a different political jurisdiction.
I will start:
got an email about this place. Its supposed to be awesome. Gun rights, even. No VAT. Technically its Norway.
h/t Sovereign Man
Since no one responded, heres another plug for Sovereign Man, a site that advocates a transnational lifestyle:

Svalbard has snow. 'Nuff said.
You’re correct. My picks worldwide are:
Thailand. Excellent culture, the only country in that region to resist colonization, they have a strong anti-globalism movement that includes the royal family. Cost of living is extremely low. They have 14-year-old boys that can beat up anyone you know.
Mongolia. One of the strongest emergent economies going forward this century. Also has a history of warrior culture. Anyone who the chinese are afraid of cant be that bad.
Chile. From what I hear, they are pretty good for starting/running a business. Has a conservative latino catholic culture that emphasizes the family.
Brazil. The government isnt so hot, actually, but this is a great place to disappear. They have people the same color as you, guaranteed.
like I said in the other thread, europe is done for, africa is too poor, that leaves asia and south america.
I’m not really the type to just up and move, as not only do I live near my family, but my girlfriend’s family lives close too. That and both of our professions make it so that we have serious incentives to stay in the area in the long run, despite the enormous tax rate. So, things would have to be even worse for me to consider these places as actual options.
But, if I were to pick, I’d probably pick Chile, unless the heat is bad. I don’t want a place that is either snowy all year or really hot all year.
Oh, what about Lichtenstein? I know it’s in Europe, but if I had to pick a place, I would probably pick Lichtenstein before Chile or wherever.
Without having done any research whatsoever I am going to guess that its easier to open a business of any type in chile or mongolia than it is to open a lemonade stand anywhere in europe. But I’m probably wrong, thats why they invented research.
I am actually not moving either, in fact I might not ever leave the US again even on vacation. I have many reasons that I would rather not discuss right now, I actually made this thread because I like the discussion and, just like some people are sports fans, I am a fan of certain countries. I follow geopolitics like people follow baseball. This is a thread for comparing countries from the perspective of a potential resident, some lurker might benefit one day (and then get killed by a flying robot).
Well, Doug French tends to recommend Argentina a lot iirc. If it’s not him, then it’s some other Doug that writes for lewrockwell.com
You mean about Doug Casey.
Well I guess I did not remember correctly after all! I thought it was a little odd that the president of the Mises Institute lived in Argentina, but I just couldn’t think of any other Dougs…
