The Fruit of the Republic Resolution
This Republic resolves to recognize the natural rights by which it consists, and how these manifest through the will of the people of this organization in our elected representatives. The duties and connections that these gifts and sources accrue allow us to vest certain powers in the dignity of people to carry out our will, to safeguard the times, and to overall haul the mechanisms of creation into a uniform sense of grace.
§1 This Republic exists in a state of humanity.
§2 The Frontier is defined as being properly manifested in Alaska, because and only because the prime place where freedom in the economy, in politics, and in nature/practice manifests supremely is in that state, and the established region. Yet it shall be remembered that this is because of the unique balance this position represents, and the manner in which this Republic can thereby profit. The Frontier is not a static location chosen for its appearance or popularity; it is a destined place of unique liberty, vested in Alaska for its balance between all types of freedom, yet political foremost among them.
§3 This is where our rights should be exercised toward, and it is through our mutual consent that we may attain such a unification of liberty.
§4 Robert's Rules of Order shall be the baseline rules of Congressional procedure.
§5 Resolved, that the Frontier in Alaska be settled, that the economic activity in Alaska be the object of such settlement, that this Republic should secure jobs in Alaska, in a manner that best spurs cooperation and time-off to build in Mat-Su.
§6 That a well-paying job be defined as one that is at least enough to support a modest yet comfortable apartment in Anchorage, a pleasant, farmable, livable, and plainly accessible 5-acre parcel in Mat-Su, of the area of at least 40,000 USD a year.
§7 That sufficient time off constitutes at least enough time on the weekends to build the property in Mat-Su, yet ideally more quite, and especially considerably more time, such that having a kind of weekend-only job would be ideal.
§8 That collective leverage be defined as the ability for us to reasonably expect or be able to assume similar and adjacent positions in the same sphere, whose power shall enhance the organizational faculties of this organization.
§9 That economic Alaskan freedom be defined as the combination of a job that offers good pay, time off, and collective leverage for us all to join, so that we have all resources to build in Mat-Su.
§10 That despite any recommendations on certain fields or jobs, every member shall be authorized and encouraged to find employment, sustainability, or means of living in any manner they choose, as would be most suitable for them.
§11 A list is put herein of the tasks of construction and generation for a good homestead. It shall consist of the construction of the homestead dwelling, or main household. The main household is a one-room, simple building suitable for a comfortable living in Alaska. The next item shall be the generation of profitable and revenue-generating activities, such as a farm, the ability to hunt and gather for additive subsistence, and other homesteading activities of the like. A focus is given to the first five years.
§12 The Congress will present herein the economic activities, expenses, revenues, and profits associated with the aforementioned and related homesteading activities for the purposes of facilitating the homesteading process in Alaska as under the Frontier Act, intended for strong reference by our members. Every member who shall move to Alaska to homestead under the Frontier Act shall do so after consulting or knowing they were encouraged to consult this and the previous lists for their aid.
§13 That the Congress recognizes that the construction, economic means of living, habitation, and homesteading activities may vary considerably from member to member, and that no member shall be compelled, coerced, nudged, or drawn to accede down a particular path thereof that is not suitable for them, and that it is the duty and responsibility of each member to determine how to best make and execute these decisions as they pertain to them, provided they accord with our major Frontier aims.
§14 That, in accordance with the Alaskan Frontier Act, every member who shall build their own dwelling shall do so after consulting or knowing they were encouraged to consult the following list of building materials and finances for their aid. The Congress estimates the total cost of building a simple 16x16 feet (256-square foot), one-room homestead house or cabin on undeveloped land, purchasing said materials in Anchorage, to be from 12,000 USD to 22,000 USD, excluding land acquisition, labor, and transportation.
§15 That among the suitable jobs in Anchorage to profit from during our foundation phase, a very viable one is that of a rotational oil roustabout at one of the major oil facilities. This Congress estimates that, after tax, members may earn 5000 USD per month, after a 14-day rotation.
§16 That the total cost of 5 acres of limited-access, undeveloped land (whose trail is connected to a main road) in the Matanuska-Susitna borough, is estimated at 25,000 USD; that for a loan thereof, a down payment—consisting of an averaged 30 percent—is 7,500 USD, where the principal loan amount is 17,500 USD, an interest rate of 8 percent over 10 years, wherein the monthly debt be 212.32 USD.
§17 This Congress estimates that a minimal program for the first year of habitation and foundation in Mat-Su and Alaska can be attained for a total of 60,000 USD, whereafter self-sufficiency and profit may be attained.
§18 —Which necessary capital, in addition to or instead of other methods, may be acquired in 12 months after such a period of rotational labor as an oil roustabout (6 total months of work, 6 months off; during which the period of actual labor totals to 3 months).
§19 All rules and proposals of this republic, in drafting and publication, must be written manually and by humans; no AI-generated content shall be inserted into any rule or proposal.
