Próspera Village “is not a location” but rather “a platform that delivers governance as a service in partnership with host governments that create a legal framework that allows that public-private partnership to emerge.”

😂 What a load of self delusional bullshit. It's like listening to a nepo-sovcit.

The only reason to even pursue something like this is to bypass municipal laws and workers rights laws. You just know everyone employed there to keep the place running will be paid through several layers of shell companies so the assholes who live there won't face any liability under any circumstances.
