Billionaires propose deregulated "freedom cities" in U.S

newsweek.com

A group of billionaires and campaigners is proposing "freedom cities" in the U.S., areas free from regulations to boost innovation. This idea has gained attention from the Trump administration and aims to create deregulated zones in various states. The Freedom Cities Coalition is exploring interstate agreements to establish these cities, which would involve shared policies and taxation between states. Próspera, backed by venture capitalists including Peter Thiel, is also supporting this initiative. President Trump has previously suggested using federal land to create new urban areas. The plan's implementation details and responsible agencies are still unclear.
