Now you really are in total fantasy land.

The problems of setting up *any* small community make it almost
impossible. Look at how few manage to struggle along, barely
surviving.

But you want to set up a community big enough and strong enough to
fight off governments! How many volunteers do you expect to get?

And 'Space Islands' must be in the distant future when nano-Santa
gives everybody everything they can possibly wish for.

Try and bring a bit of real-world practicality back into your dreams.
