Kansas,
United States
 Greetings!MCUSA is holding out the opportunity to those who are interested in living an old world lifestyle. Our vision is geared towards the poor although we do not exclude the rich. What we envision is an old world artisan community that is for the most part unplugged. We are looking for a base camp in the midwest, Missouri, Kansas, or Northern Oklahoma area. Once the land is paid for members will only need to come up with cash for taxes. If there's $400 a year tax with 20 members, you'd have to come up with $20 a year tax. This is very do-able. The dwellings would be tax free as there are not any taxes on horsepowered vardos/carryvans. That's right horse powered, ass powered, ox powered, camel powered,we've done it, we're doing it & we'll do it again. Mcusa is an artisan community. The mc stands for Master of Ceremonies thus you're religion is your thing. The only thing we ask as a community is that no one proselytize unless asked about their faith & that no one sets up Jesus/Buddha/Mother Mary statues, etc. on the property. Feel free to fill your vardo. Sound crazy? I don't believe so. This is a great opportunity for those who want to get back to their roots and start hoofin' it. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thanks John.
