When you don't have a lot of food, you sleep a lot and rest a lot (I know because I went months without food) and to preserve energy you just do what you need to do. All I thought about was how to preserve as much energy as possible at all times, and when I could eat next. Its a totally different mindset. The body can live off of very little food if it has too, but you will spend a lot of time resting, finding ways to stay warm, not moving a lot, , and eating when you can and if you can. My situation wasn't because of lack of money, it was a health problem that made eating impossible. And so that is what the body does, when under starvation or possibility of starvation. These folks look like they are just trying to stay warm and fed, and it can be hard just saving your physical and mental energy for what you need to do. You don't need dignity just as much as you don't need money. All people need is love.

Living from donations still requires other people to have money- just not the people who live in the village. I'd love to see people eating from the produce of the land, and building from the materials Nature provides.

He grew so many lush tomatoes, squashes and melons that he ended up giving most of it away to friends and family. if you have land make good use of it, don't build parking lots, build a local farm.

So a good friend of mine went to get his brother from one of these and bring him home for the holiday. He stayed with them a few days. It was his observation that many of the people living in these conditions were unable to function in normal society. Many were running from debts, coping with addictions, were pot heads, or were simply just "weird". He had said his brother was not able to function while back home for the holidays. He had lived in a "community" for about 2 years at that time and simply had become disconnected from reality. He had also mentioned that after a period of time his brother and other members had taken to robbing local stores and homes, had become beggars, and essentially could not sustain themselves. They were detested by locals and for good reason. It's not so glorious.

I also don't believe in welfare queens who just sit around,,,pop out kids and collect everything they can. My neighbor was a welfare queen. The longest she ever held a job was one week,,,,she had three kids so she received the maximum of everything available. She knew how to work the system. She drove a cadillac,,the kids wore $100 dollar shoes,,,she had brand new furniture and they ate steak and ribs regularly. At that time I drove a 10 year old Honda,,our clothes and shoes came from Wal-Mart,,,all my furniture was old and we ate bean tacos on a regular basis. Was I jealous?

I feel what you guys are doing, and support your endeavors. But it is possible to live in better conditions and still be self sustaining.

During the thousands of years of monetary system, most workers have been paid just enough to make it necessary that they return to work, even when higher wages have been possible. How else can the wage-payer keep the workers coming back? Take off all the mask, manners, fancy clothes, all the devices you use and be the most honest person you can be with yourself, then whatever love you get then is real. All the false approaches, like trying to be a player, only bring false results... We live in a world where our social system is old, our language is old, the way we acquire goods and services is outdated, our cities are detrimental to our health, chaotic and a tremendous waste of resource, and most of all our politics and values no longer serve us. So, "normal" is really what society dictates as normal and if we're born in that world, we would see that as normal. But if you think about it for a second, is it really? To better understand a Resource Based Economy consider this: if all the money in the world suddenly disappeared, but topsoil, factories, and other resources were left intact, we could build anything we chose to build and fulfill any human need. It is not money that people need, but access to the necessities of life without having to appeal to a government bureaucracy or any other agency. In a Resource Based Economy money is irrelevant. What's required are the resources and manufacturing and distribution of the products. In a monetary system, purchasing power is not related to the capacity to produce goods and service. For example, in a recession there are computers in store windows and automobiles in car lots; but people do not have the purchasing power to buy them. The rules of the monetary system are obsolete and create needless strife, deprivation, and human suffering. In today’s culture of profit we do not grow foods based on demand, nor do we practice medicine solely to cure diseases. Industry's major motivation is profit. - Jacque Fresco ~ THE VENUS PROJECT~

JEFFREY HARDIN This is only at best partially true. While there is a chance to get some treatments, the cost to individuals is outrageous. I had a friend who was in an accident and didn't have insurance cause she couldn't afford it. Had to go to the emergency room. The charge for the visit was outrageous, but if she hadn't gone she would have died. Sadly they have taken almost everything she had to pay and now shes living in a homeless shelter. And thanks to still owing money, whenever we have tried to help, collections have taken it before she has been abel to get back on her feet. That was and still is a broken fucking system. I'm sorry but the system as is, pre AND post Obamacare is a fucking joke. We pay like 10 - 100x as much as other countries do for the same care, IF we're lucky. Nothing is worse since Obamacare, (though its only marginally better if that) unless you are listening to FAUX news and their misinformation.

Just turned 28 this month, been working my whole life. Ever since I left home at 18. Always been an outdoorsman, I am sooooo sick of the society that most of us live in today. Physically and mentally sick, I just want to move out in the sticks. Lived in Alabama my whole life, fishing - hunting all is second nature to me. I’m a loner, not very socially active - just me and my dogs living day by day. Living to die and dying to live. I feel like I’m stuck in a endless loop, like I just need to move one foot forward but I’m dragging a truck behind me. It really sucks being 28, no family left alive and no friends. I was quite popular in high school, played ball since peewees. After I hit about 20-21 years of age I just changed. Been a loner ever since. I don’t go out to eat, don’t go to any type of social gatherings. However I do live in the country, I struggle to pay bills and rent etc. I’m just ready to leave it behind, start new. The sticks are calling me.

Hi, bub, I'm a woodsrunner like you, but quite older. Please forgive me if I'm being impertinent, but understand the difference between REALLY NEEDING to do something and CHOOSING to do that thing. If the former goes to shit, you went down fighting; if the latter goes to shit, you're a dumbass who should've known better. Have you read the book INTO THE WILD and/or seen the movie? The only thing that kept me from doing the same thing (other than really practicing the necessary skills) was freezing my ass off just here in Appalachia while getting blessed by the Almighty with venison. Running water and cheesesteak subs fixed just so are more than worthy. Think carefully and slowly--the sticks are unforgiving even to those who seemingly know all about them, and don't give sons of bitches cause to use you as a cautionary example.

All these comments are talking down on these people like they're doing a bad job, but you have zero frame of reference. Try doing it yourself before you criticize any of the people that are actually trying to change the way this world works. Dont talk down on the people that at least took the first few steps to TRY.

I just think you may not be paying for stuff, but others have paid for your food and other stuff. So you are living off others working for their money. There is nothing wrong with working for what you have, you can get a great sense of achievement, it builds character. Makes you strong, not always a bad thing to have money. Greed is bad. Learning contentment is more important.

I have lived this way before. I left it to live what most people would consider a better lifestyle. There are many days when I am stuck at work in a toxic work environment when I just want to say the hell with it all. So much of my life I spend at work and I can't get the time back again it is a real shame. At least they aren't stuck in traffic, stuck in a building, dreading going to work in the morning, stuck in a rat race. All for what? Just to keep a roof over my head that I end up over paying for. I live alone and don't have any kids or a wife depending on me for anything. And I already know that I can survive the way they are living. Do I really want to spend half of my life slaving away at a mediocre job just to be told to piss off in the end while some rich asshole is taking advantage of my hard work? My family owns land where I could plant a garden, hunt, build a cabin and be free. The time I spend at work I could be out enjoying the weather while I tend my garden or sitting under a shade tree fishing for my dinner not giving a flying shit what is going on in the rat race.
