Going off the grid
For the past few months I've been seriously contemplating just going off the grid completely, and I know it's probably a lot easier said than done.
Anyone have any experience with such a life choice?

I don't care about taxes, I don't even care if I stay here, I just want to live my own life, my own way without an imposing government telling me how to live, where to live, and when to live.
And by off the grid I mean self sustaining, living by myself, fuck modern life kinda thing.

To own land and be 'off the grid' is one of my life goals. Les Stroud is a good place to start.
p.s. I don't think your hydro bill pays for poor people, or is a tax at all.

its good the most progressive state in the country is full of smelly hippies, or else we wouldnt be the tenth largest economy in the world.
stupid environmentalists, championing ideas that will be common place among backwoods midwest idiots in a few decades.

I think anything that impedes bearsy's ability to type should be viewed as a bonus, personally.
