For me, it's welfare. It's sickenly degrading, dehumanizing, and destroys hope and opportunity. Yet I don't know how to disengage it. This is what I'll be thinking about.
There are different areas that others don't like. FDA?
How can we create better outside of the government system, starving it of 'customers'?
Welfare can help those with a mindset to help themselves and see it for what it is. it helped me and kept me from starving while I was homeless (foodstamps/UI)
FDA should be a red flag just like the ATF.
The difficulty is that business is directly tied to the government, but I am with you 1776%. Goods are easy, but food or drink has to pass the "sniff test" of the FDA in order to hit mass markets I believe or else be marketed as something it isn't. See supplements. Realistically, we need to stop asking and start doing and the chips will fall where they may. A sort of underground commerce. Skills are the easiest to market with such a thing, goods will be difficult and food will be the hardest on any large scale. I believe a smaller, more local community may be healthier however.
They can't stop us from making our own food, so we learn to cook, not rely on processed food which they control.
The FDA exists because there was a 'need', much of it an uneducated citizenry. Then we remove that need. If we need outside certification of health, we promote the use of independent sources and proclaim those better - we starve the FDA of authority. UL certifies electrical appliances; there is no government agency. We can 'grow' this situation in other areas.
Farm, not cook. It's a lot bigger and that is the issue. It's very difficult to get a good crop in an apartment.
Agreed, education is key in this. They have our children hostage, it's time we take them back. This is a war for your heart and mind, and it's paramount you are a sharp mind and a smart heart.
UL does a lot more than electronics, actually. They do locks as well, and I use that as a sort of "+1" on my security.
We adults need to be better educated too. We were duped a loooong time ago and need to get smarter. Wise as serpents, innocent as doves.
