    People live off one dollar per day.

    The most expensive part is medical insurance. That has to come down to international standards. 300 dollars a month should be enough.

    You need food from a central kitchen, about 1 dollar per day.

    That leaves 4000 dollars for rent, clothing, phone and other expenses.

      I think you can work out the next flaw in the plan for yourself.

        You call it flaw, I call it obstacle.

        If you look outside the US, you can get housing for a price that leaves enough of the 4000 for other expenses.

        The easiest option is to connect some barren land to a city center with public transport in a climate zone that doesn’t need much insulation. But that just as a proof of concept. More clever options can be realized.
