I want to live free of this odd detached system that people have created for themselves. I hear the talking heads and the politicos lamenting the lack of work ethic in America. It’s simple. Why would anyone care about their job when all they do is work for other people.
Nothing matches the satisfaction of doing hard work for yourself, and reaping the benefits directly. This strange system of sitting at a computer all day or cooking food for others to eat, so that you get little pieces of paper to give to other people so that they’ll take care of your basic needs is immensely strange to me the more I look at it.
I want to build my own home, grow my own food, and be as self-sufficient as possible. And I want to do it around like-minded knowledgable people.
So my plan is to go on a sort of Commune Tour around America, staying for a few weeks at a number of different communes and trying to find one that I fit into and that fits me.
