Report: Future deregulated “free city” plans

Plans are underway across the United States to create privately managed corporate enclaves that operate outside of federal oversight -.

According to Wired, a coalition of technology billionaires, venture capitalists and corporate advocacy groups have drafted legislation for Congress and met with the Trump administration to bring these experimental cities into the soil of the United States.

The outlet reports that these cities are “free from certain federal laws and that unregulated human longevity trials, nuclear reactor startups, and unlimited infrastructure projects can move forward without government approval. As wired places:

The goal for these cities is to have anti-aging clinical trials, reactor startups, and places where building construction can proceed without prior approval from agencies such as the Food and Drug Administration, the Nuclear Regulation Authority, and the Environmental Protection Agency.

Given the affiliations of globalists and the ideology of their supporters, the project advances a top-down governance model that threatens to establish corporate-controlled territory and gradually replaces national sovereignty with corporate rules.

Donald Trump has fully embraced the idea of ​​a “city of freedom.” In 2023, he branded it as a revival of America's dream.

Behind the push

The Freedom City Coalition, a corporate advocacy group, is leading accusations to establish city-states personally across the United States. Far from the grassroots movement, the coalition is a direct extension of Prospera, a controversial “startup nation” founded in 2020 on Roatan Island, Honduras.

Prospera has achieved a status as a heaven for high-tech entrepreneurs and business investors. It offers low taxes, minimal regulations, and a governance model that treats residents as “customers” rather than citizens. Now, its supporters are aiming to replicate the model into US soil, creating a semi-automatic corporate enclave that has no longer been government surveillance.

The Union was created by Neway Capital LLC, which owns several trademarks of Prospera. The company effectively serves as an operational hub for Prospera expansion. The project is financially supported by Prinos Capital, funded by Trump's leading donors, Peter Thiel and Mark Andreesen. Their figures are deeply tied to national security, next-generation defense technology, and AI-driven surveillance systems.

vision

The Freedom City coalition envisions fundamental changes in the American economic and political order, with private enclaves being replaced by barriers to government oversight and regulation, erasing them in the name of progress. Their message is clear: the old system is failing, and only corporate-led governance can restore American domination.

American manufacturing is moving offshore, home prices are rising sharply, and entrepreneurs are suffocated by regulations and bureaucracy. A city of freedom is the solution.

At the heart of their argument is the claim that government regulations are not merely inefficiency, they are an existential threat to economic growth.

If federal regulations had been frozen at the 1980 level, US GDP would have been $4.0 trillion more in 2012 (an increase of 50.0%).

This estimate holds true. But instead of advocating for the dismantling of unconstitutional institutions, the group is trying to bypass traditional governance entirely. Rather than returning power to the country, it promotes a privatised city-state where companies set rules.

“Free Cities” are being marketed as an unregulated institute of innovation. They provide:

A testbed for emerging technologies such as self-driving cars and advanced nuclear weapons.
A streamlined approval process for groundbreaking development.
It will enable American entrepreneurs to build physical goods faster and more efficiently in the real world.

The Union is pushing for the transfer of federal land to corporate developers. “28% of US land is federally owned and ready for innovative development.”

Finally, the group has established itself as a counterweight to global competitors such as China.

Trump is on board

According to Wired, the Freedom Cities Coalition is undergoing active consultations with the Trump administration. He also drafts laws to fulfill this vision. Prospera's Chief of Staff Trey Goff confirmed the administration was “very accepting.”

The outlet proposed that Trump create 10 such cities in 2023, but proposed that the coalition has “not only 10, but as much as the market can handle.”

In a campaign video in March 2023, Trump surrounded the initiative as a “quantum leap in America's standard of living.”

Trump said,

Americans of past generations have pursued big dreams and bold projects that once seemed absolutely impossible. But today our nation has lost its boldness. Under my leadership, we will take it back in a very big way.

Vison reflects global megaprojects such as Saudi Arabia's Neom and South Korea's Songdo. But Trump framed the new city as a distinctive American revival surrounded by frontier nostalgia and free market rhetoric.

The plan, according to the then chairman, is to privatize a portion of federal land with the aim of that plan.

Trump's pitch was spectacular,

These cities of freedom will reopen the frontier, rekindled the American imagination, giving hundreds of thousands of young people and others (all hardworking families) homeownership and, in fact, new shots of American dreams. ”

Perhaps Trump's rhetoric strongly reflects the fate of the manifesto, a 19th century belief that America is destined to expand. Needless to say, Trump called out references in his first speech earlier this year. However, in the 21st century, you may find it strange. Are the new “Indigenous peoples” left outside these techno environments separated from the wealth, power and governance of the new corporate frontier?

In 2023, Ron Desantis' camp denounced the project as a globalist “15-minute city” scheme.

Bypass federal government surveillance

The Union proposed three legal routes to rapid free cities, avoiding legislative barriers.

Interstate Compact – The states were able to jointly designate territories of “free cities” and share tax and regulatory policies, while bypassing federal oversight. Goff proposes laws that grant “higher consent” to these compacts.

Federal Enclaves – Special economic and jurisdiction zones that are not subject to federal law create hubs for quasi-Sorberin companies.

Executive Order – Trump can bypass Congress entirely by issuing an executive order to establish a free city by Fiat.

As Wired explains, the momentum behind these proposals is intensifying.

“Dc's energy is definitely electricity,” Goff told Wired. “In meetings with those involved, they can tell us that they have an obligation to do something more hyperbolic and redundant than Trump mentioned.”

Final Thoughts

“Free cities” appear to be more than just an economic experiment. They represent fundamental changes in governance.

Who makes the laws in these enclaves? Who will enforce them?

What happens when businesses manage digital economy, biomedical advances, financial infrastructure, and even governance itself?

Based on Trump's vision, what happens when “Freedom Cities” becomes the next great American project? If they become the main engine of economic activity, where will it leave the rest of the country?

What if investment, employment and cutting-edge industries are concentrated in these enclaves? Will traditional cities and rural areas begin to dry out?

Does this create two Americas? One is dominated by private interests, and the other is left to stagnate under a “ineffective” legacy system?

History provides warnings. The founder was afraid of the Olihead. The elite replaced representative governments with control by wealth. Their concern was not innovation, not consent, but an unidentified force that transforms from people governed by ownership to people.

They also did not imagine citizens as “customers” in a corporate-run society. Instead, they considered them as stakeholders of the Constitutional Republic and had non-transferable rights, not privileges recognized at the discretion of private bodies.

Meanwhile, all the companies that benefit from the project are playing an active role in the World Economic Forum technical agenda. This framework of the Fourth Industrial Revolution advances the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGS).

This raises the question: is this really a revival of the American dream, or is it the next stage in the globalist acquisition?
