2VR-Ozy

by Dani Hutton

Thanks to the good folks at Ozy and journalist Dani Hutton for this look at independence movements across the UNtied States of Empire. No, we’re not nut jobs. Just principled decentralists who believe that “Bigness be the problem,” “Small Is Beautiful,” and finally, that the best way forward in this new century – the Age of Limits – is to devolve. Free Vermont, and long live the UNtied States!
