Well that isn't easy either. You've said that you would first try recruiting citizens, wouldn't that require extra training if they don't have the necessary skills? That would just add additional costs.
I hope that at least 0.3% of the Bitcoiners are policemen by profession. So... if we have 10,000 people moving to the island, we will be having at least 30 policemen. I was not talking about training newbies to become policemen.
I do think that actually building the island would be the hardest step and most expensive one.
Yes. The obstacles have to be solved in three phases.
1. Solving the legal obstacles
2. Solving the financial obstacles
3. Solving the technical obstacles
That seems like a fair number.
I can't decide which phase is harder for this kind of project.
