This ties in to an earlier topic we had about what you can do yourself to be independent from material needs, when i move there i would prefer to make or build the things that i can do, eliminate the desires for things that are not necessary and plant/eat what i can from my own land, and of course share whatever bounty i can give to others in need.
I know there will always be a need to import a variety of things for our daily lives, but if we can start thinking seriously about buying everything locally or making everything locally than I would prefer to put my money into those types of businesses and grow our own local economies.
Yeah...what he/she said. I feel the very same way. Don't get me wrong I'm not gonna be out in front of walmart picketing with a sign or anything. Hopefully I'll be seen more at the farmers market!
