It is near or at a deep-water port. Close to Roatán Island. Good location for a new Hong Kong or Singapore. If it were me, I would hire Disney Imagineering to help with city design.
when can we move in?
Where does money for courts/police/fire come from?
Galts Gulch?......
Friedmanville is the name. Says minimal taxes not none, that is where the police come from. Fire departments were voluntary for decades in the U.S. and ambulance would be pay as you go.
“If it were me, I would hire Disney Imagineering to help with city design.”
Good idea. Reminds me of my close bud who works for Universal Studios design team which includes the roller coaster rides. They went once to Shanghai and the Chinese local govt wanted Superman, Mickey Nouse etc. My bud said “Excuse me, but those are trademarked and copyrighted..” The Chinese locals looked at each other and the translator said “trademark? What is that?” And people kept asking why the Chinese are experts at stealing stuff and making crappy stuff.....
Not a fair test. Kind of like trying to grow straberries on asphalt... High levels of corruption, crime, drug cartel activity, worst homicide rate in the hemisphere. If the experiment fails, I don't want to hear leftists saying, "See, capitalism doesn't work."
Drug Cartel haven.
I predict that it will be a phenomenal success therefor it will most likely be the most hated and despised place on Earth. Wish we could do that here in the U.S.
¿Cuándo puedo mudarme allá?
San Pedro Sula is nearby and is currently one of the leading cities in the world for the incidence of murders, mostly drug related. I foresee problems for this utopia being planned; maybe they will name it Obamastan.
IF this is true, how long will this new capitalist private city (cities) last before the heavy hand of the Honduran government starts interfering with its running?
Socialists or progressives do NOT like capitalists or capitalism in any way, shape, or form because it demonstrates the foolhardiness of their centrally planned societies.
If it works maybe we should try it here in the good ole USA. I’ve got some vacant land available out here in Weat Texas.

They need to use the Swiss model for safety, i.e. every resident/household MUST have a fully loaded assault rifle on premises and pass a mandatory use test. Else they will attract the nearby riffraff like flys to poop and have crime problems.
we should try the same experiment in the US! I say, let’s make this kind of deal for Texas, not just a city, a whole state that by itself would be something like the 14th biggest economy in the world. Once we have that agreement, we could then agree to, say, use the US Constitution as written and designed for our legal framework. I worked well until the progressives and Teddy Roosevelt messed everything up.
