where was thiel bitching about the Fed and its liquidity binge when it was goosing his facebook stake into the billions? haha it will be amusing watching this guy circle the drain with all of the rest of the lauded paypal mafia, whose paper-tiger web2 "empires" are individually going nowhere fast

Hi,

Can we leave the political articles for other sites, please?

This article isn't really that political. The end result is suggest we colonize the oceans which should be interesting regardless of your politics.

Thanks for posting this. I found it to be quite interesting.

However, I was baffled by the comment at the end:

> For this reason, all of us must wish Patri Friedman the very best in his extraordinary experiment.

A brief Google for Patri Friedman suggests that the experiment in question involves building a community on the open sea, outside of any recognized national jurisdiction, i.e., "seasteading".

Is that the "experiment" that was referred to?
