The world's biggest squat is there for the taking.

Fordlandia was a town built in the Amazon rainforest by the famous anti-semite and industrial cunt Henry Ford.
It was abandoned for a number of reasons but most of it is still there just waiting for an enterprising band of well-armed anarchists to turn up and declare independence.
Any takers?

I'm afraid most of them have already been killed off by diseases brought in by the original "settlers", principally syphillis and the common cold, and the missionaries have been at work turning the survivors into glassy eyed christian robots who regard their own culture as "evil".

Those foreigners are going to start going home soon. The Polish immigrants to the UK are leaving in droves, after six or seven years most of them are working out that, "you know what, it's shit here!"
 
I just watched a programme on BBC One, where Michael Palin is travelling around Brazil. He visits Fordlandia. It looks pretty fucked up. I don't know how viable any of the buildings would be if you really did want to try and settle there, it looked wrecked. Also, the remote location might make getting any sort of supplies really hard. Although, saying all that Michael Palin and a film crew managed it so I am sure it would be doable by boat. In any case its an interesting place.

This is is the link to the programme
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01nqm81/Brazil_with_Michael_Palin_Into_Amazonia/

its available until 21st november. I don't know if it will work outside of the UK, so maybe look on youtube if you can't watch on the BBC website.
