Why is that we have to make money to survive? Why aren't we taught in school how to grow our own vegetables and how to survive without the dependence upon other's to put food in a grocery store for us to buy?
An excellent post Mescaline man, and a subject that fascinates me very much. Recently i've had some time out of the rat race and this has led me to research this type of subject greatly.
I understand where you're coming from, feel your frustration, and share your interest.
Certainly i think that over time humanity has tried different ways of living and has now come up with "variety". The good thing about waking up and realising this situation is that you are also lucky enough to "choose life", and surf the seas of your dreams. Maybe live in the country and become self sufficient. Find some place / country where you can do this. It's possible, and i know lotsa people that do it.
I don't think that life will ever be free especially when the government has every aspect of the "controllables" pretty much controlled. They own land, your food, your water, you name it. Then again they are powerless against natural disaster, so never fear, their controlling is only a superficial illusion.
As long as you can find your own inner happiness, then you are free. The rest is just a daft game, and they are good players.
Just something i read from a non descript newspaper in a toilet somewhere....:lol:
