    Every time I hear someone advocating against self-sufficiency and dependency on a fascist system, the alarm bells go off.

    It seems alien to most because we are indoctrinated to fear individualism and anything that deviates from the status quo, and take “comfort” in the deeply corrupt system we are all forced to participate in.

    Like I said in another comment, at this point people are forced to do this purely out of survival, because living within the system is just not possible anymore. It’s much easier to understand and empathize if you’ve experienced poverty and discrimination.

    All you have to do is have enough cash to not work while you learn to do all that labor including building codes designed to keep you from killing yourself.

    That’s why I also suggested purchasing pre-fab. Hell, you could buy a trailer or even a shipping container, or whatever is within your means.

    Change is hard for the average person, and most will resist it.
