Glenn Beck Planning To Construct $2 Billion Libertarian Community In Texas | TPM LiveWire

Conservative radio host Glenn Beck is planning to construct a self-sustaining libertarian community in Texas to the tune of $2 billion, the Dallas Observer reported on Friday.

The community, which Beck dubs "Independence Park," does not have a specified location yet, but it will be styled after "Galt's Gulch," a fictional utopian commune in Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged."

More details from Right Wing Watch:

On his program last night, Beck revealed that his intention to "go Galt" is quite literal, unveiling grandiose plans to create an entirely self-sustaining community called Independence Park that will provide its own food and energy, produce television and film content, host research and development, serve as a marketplace for products and ideas, while also housing a theme park and serving as a residential community.

At the center - in the middle of the lake that is itself larger than all of Disney Land - Beck (with the help of David Barton) will create a massive "national archive"/learning center where people can send their children to be "deprogrammed" and elected officials can come to learn "the truth."

Don't ever forget these times. Tell your seeds the stories of how conservatives behaved during the administration of the first bi-racial president. Don't allow them to pretend like they were down for the cause like they do with MLK.

It's going to be full of creepy ass bitter white guys in their mid 20's that think that quoting Edmund Burke makes them some sort of high-minded intellectual.

If they can somehow turn spamming YouTube videos with comments related to Ron or Rand Paul into a profit, it might have a shot though.

Won't this eventually degenerate into a proto-Marxist society once they figure out that they can't pay Mexicans to do all the hard work with Beck Bucks?
