Alright guys so ya know how alot of society is really materialistic and its just getting worse and worse? well I realized I dont really give a shit about many objects and things like that, i dont really care about luxurious or extra thing that I dont actually need, I realized I could be happy in life with just the essentials, food to eat, a comfortable place to live, and good people around me. So I made an idea that would be awesome if it worked but it might sound kind of idealistic, I know there are certain parts that are forsure. Anyways I know the government literally made it where its literally impossible to live (or atleast comfortably) without having atleast a certain amount of money or income. So what I figured is I want to get some of my good friends and family together (i already know some who are up for it) to all use almost all the money we've saved to buy a big area of land out in the wild somewhere, and we would all work together to build houses for eachother and work on a field big enough to support only the food we would need, not tons to sell and everything, just the amount we need. and what I would wanna do with this community would be have almost no rules or laws (not like those communes where you hvae to be vegetarian or anything like that) the one rule would basically dont do anything to intentionally fuck someone else over. so that basically generalizes "do not steal" and "do not kill or anything like that" just into not being someone who is mean to others ya know? and then we would let other friends and good people come and live with us, and as those people got comfortable with it and wanted to make it a permanant thing for themselves they could put whatever money they had into the materials they would need for a house or anything like that. and so for power itd be dope if we could make windmills and also have a river or soemthing for water turbines, and maybe invest in some solar power stuff too. and so then we would be basically self sufficient, not relying on the government or use of money at all, we would have shelter and food and all the essentials you need in life. Now obviously you still need some money to be able to pay proprty taxes but hopefully we could make that money with having a fresh foods market up in a public area. So yeah if anyone sees any big problems with this plan I'd like you to let me know so that I can work on it so that maybe it can go from being an idealistic little plan to an actual possiblitlty, I just need to work on troubleshooting I guess. Also thionk about how crazy itd be if it worked, if people heard there was a place you could go ewhere you were basically completely free to do whatever you want (except fuck other people over obviously) then mad people would problly wanna go, especially as the rest of society is getting worse and worse as it is right now. Now I would figure that if it did get popular and if it got big enough we would have to stop it from getting bigger and instead say that we can help other people set up their own community and the two would work together, trading with eachother and shit. I think itd be fuckin awesome and to me it seems like a crzy good idea cuz then you can basically be happy all the time cuz instead of dreading going to work for some comapny everyday you jare motivated to do the work youd have to do because it directly benefits you with food for your family and stuff like that, also then all the work your putting into it is stuff that your getting out of it, its not like working for a bisines where you know the work your putting into it is worth more than the amount of money your getting out of it (obviously because your boss makes more without him doing the work himself, alot of your work is actually benefitting him and not you) so yeah guys if youve bothered reading this id love to hear your feedback on whether it sound s like a good idea and tell me if you see any problems with my plan so far. Thanks!
Nothing new, man. Look around maybe you will find one you like. You say you will have just enough food for yourself and then you mention having food market. And don't go too far with your plans, plan beginnings, you have no clue whatsoever how this could go in the future, therefore planning far far ahead is a waste of time.
alright guys thanks for kinda shutting me down, i dont have writing skills at all i dont really think about paragraphs and shit haha. i was just posting what i wanted to say and you didnt have to read it or post that you didnt bother reading it. and yeah as far as the food market thing i was thinking id have to figure out that money situation as far as taxes n shit, cuz id need atleast a little income for that, so yeah like excess fresh produce or whatever i dont fuckin know. I was just trying to see what other type of shit is a problem with this and if its completely too unrealistic or if its semi possible and if anyone had any ideas on how to make it more likely to happen
you also have to consider how you will pay for medical bills if someone is seriously injured or gets sick. in canada we don't have to worry about that though.
Right! haha ive thought about moving to Canada since the U.S is goin down the shitter. I think Im gonna wait till im like 25-30 and see if the U.S looks like its getting any better, if not Canada it is! haha
Now lets apply it, Im with you. Ive literally wanted to proceed with a plan like this for years. Lets do this, im completley serious.:2thumbsup:

Yeah I just feel like itd be a much happier way of living life without much of a need for money. all the work you would do would directly benefit yourself or the comunity around you. compared to working a job in today's society, alot of your hardwork doesnt even benefit you, the managers, CEO's and presidents make money from your work which is why they make more money with doing less work, and then your whole life your supposed to work towards getting a raise and getting one of those higher up positions so that you dont have to work as hard and get more money in return. Honestly I dont really wanna live that way, wanting other people to do the work that benefits me. I think thats kind of why societys getting so fucked up now, there is a competition to get a higher level job than the average person so that you make more money without having to do the hardest work. so many people begin to lose their sense of care for others and helping those around them. my community idea relies on the ideas of helping the people around you because everyone must work together to live comfortably that way, it will call for a greater need for helping others to prosper naturally rather than being better than others to "make more money and prosper" Sorry its another long post haha
