Seems that is about all he did...The Organic Prepper really knocked down his arguments later in the article...Just because they are not consumers does not mean they are not producers! And they pay taxes too—property, sales, etc.

Seems like a radical who does not want anyone being able to be an independent thinking, self reliant citizen.

I did some research on self reliance beginning at about age three or so when I was big enough to carry a single piece of split firewood to the wood box. That was the beginning of fifteen years of advanced education in walking behind a plow, using a hoe, a shovel, an ax, pulling one end of a five and a half foot long two man crosscut saw, picking cotton, digging postholes, hanging fence, milking cows, feeding chickens, pigs, cows, mules etc. I probably am withing striking distance of qualifying for an undergraduate degree in living like my ancestors. I am still nowhere close to the level of master reached by my parents even though I have studied a lot since leaving the farm for the Navy and still manage to study on my own campus for several hours every week. I won’t live long enough to approach the level of Doctor of roughing it, a level which nearly everyone reached back in the days of my great grandfather who was born one hundred years before me and wore the grey. He lived to be seventy nine years old even after surviving the worst war in American history and reconstruction.
The following selection is offered in hopes of illustrating how life used to be in this great land when sanity still prevailed, I sincerely hope you enjoy ithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdaeQLCTa6g
