It still took land and some resources, but no where near the morgage of the Jone's. They built their earth ship home for just around 40 000. At -40, in the winter, this Canadian couple require no heat. No cooling. No utilities. They grow their own food, and are artisans, artists, and work at only what they wish to, from their own property. Now, this is starting look a little more FREE to me.

My reasoning is that smaller, cottages could be clustered to allow multi family dwellings. Perhaps a larger one with a bigger shared greenhouse, laundry and a commercial kitchen with lots of professional space and to run businesses out. I always see land, as benefiting many.

Soon as we came into this world, we were introduced to their ideology, theology, doctrines, policies, practices and laws. It has been an all out relentless assault on our minds coming out of the gate. I don't know for sure what is happening with the earth changes, if its just a phase that is doable for most, or if its a cycle, or even the last cycle, but we have to get up each day, and continue with life and our dreams. We can't allow all of this fear and negativity they hold us in the grip of, daily, and through the medias to magnetize us, in any way. Turning it off, and passing it through, replacing it with very positive images and dreams. And it works, just try taking 2 or 3 people renting and show them an earthship home and you can actually feel an earth vibratory shift and as if it is drawn closer. I know what holds people into their system, FEAR. Fear of loss of life and liberty, health and the need for health and dental, for some that is the sole reason they don't take off to the country. Others will do anything to get their children through university and so can't leave the city. So some of it is sacrificing, and fear. Fear of their retaliation as well, their laws, and police state. We can't have fear, but the only way around that,is community. So that medical can exist, healthy alternatives and emergency. So that education can be renegotiated. And as for their fascism and fema. We need to ensure they know we don't endorse them and not willingly submit to them, and to that end, the more people meditate, seek within, practice astral projection, for example, or lucid dreaming, share their unsusual experiences, the more they will no longer fear anything in this world and not allow anyone to order them around. Instead, they will know they are not their bodies, and that living Free, with a heart, standing up for what is right, and supporting others is worth more than the illusion of safety in this world.

Thread: Cob houses - build a 1000 sqft home for 10,000 to 20,000 Cob houses - build a 1000 sqft home for 10,000 to 20,000 Thought this was a very similar idea. If more people opted for alternative solutions and homes, they could spend time with family, make their own small businesses, and choose to work part time for themselves. Ethically and enjoying the true meaning life. If enough did this, and there were enough alternative businesses, we could consciously withdraw support for every single one of their monopolies, their illegal pyramid scheme monopolies. One of the big needs for small businesses in every region/town is local alternative papers. They could be free, delivered to every single door, paid for by advertisements, especially local, ethical, good businesses. The Devil tries to convince everyone he doesn't exist.

There is no energy shortage, we can produce our own off grid energy both with conventional and exotic methods, (ie explore free energy designs in our back yard, after the windmills and solar and sterling engines are running, or our waterwheels, and all numbers of other solutions, such as biofuels and HH0). There is no land shortage, we can all live on our own little farms and still have most of the planet left over for pristine wilderness and forests, trees are the lungs of this planet. We have no water shortage (oops they seem hell bent on buying up the water rights and selling bottled water while radiating the oceans and pouring very toxic chemicals in, not to mention dumping industry waste into our ground water). Its up to us to form citizens councils and chain our out of control rapid pit bulls, we need to flex our power alot more. But, we can purify water too, even of radiation. There is no lack of ability to have everyone well off even, if most were contributing to the world from their own talents and gifts, ie. teachers counselors, nurses, small businesses, BUT, the ABC's should be simply the right to have our land and homes and gardens, tax free, cost free, as we share it all. In the meantime, opting out is the best thing we can do and shining the example to others and exporting the model to the third world, land donations. Its time to really go with the solutions of how not to be roped into the treadmill paying off the half million dollar houses and hundreds in utilities, but be free.

Now he didn't want to waste space with a bath. I would have that parked on a few acres, with family and friends in their own, the teens in their own too, a big family could spread out. Then on the other side, create a smaller cube, bathroom on wheels, made to match, beautiful and much more roomy than the average motor home bathroom. And attach it in a module fashion to the back, seal it, tarp the roof if rainy or snowy, if necessary. Then in the larger space along the back, in the L shaped space, create a roof and a wonderful porch, hot tub, outdoor eating, or even enclose it as a module greenhouse. You could have lots of friends and families nestled into trees and put up a huge yurt, with a family kitchen for weekly meals, and a huge laundry, luxury bath, some storage and a guest bedroom. Like this: Spirit Mountain Yurts 2 I like this idea because it has solid walls inside and real windows, and uses the insulation sheets. Quite nice idea. Then one could live really nicesly, art studio, greenhouses, living their dreams, while they slowly started to build cob homes and enviro and inexpensive but beautiful homes and used these others for offices, stuidios, guests and teens down the road. More and more people opting out, and being very active locally, educating people, citizens councils and watchdogs for our court houses and our corrupt employee representatives. We need to be our own leaders and really make changes occur. Last Edited by Sungaze_At_Dawn on 07/31/2012 04:19 PM The Devil tries to convince everyone he doesn't exist.

| Sungaze_At_Dawn (OP) User ID: 1458670 Canada07/31/2012 08:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | For those stuck on the gridmill, there are energy solutions to reduce cost and footprints even for apartments or homes in the city, and whole neighborhoods could be more of a community, more of an eco farm, but no one would need to give up their privacy. I'm a pretty private person myself. But many have larger circle of friends and family and could set up the eco farm by selling one of those overpriced homes too. But educating people, local groups of citizens, the kind that can tackle bylaws and remind corrupt, judges, politicians that PI's work. A little investigation should help straighten some attitudes out. Citizens need to really get strong. Not violent/aggressive, but very assertive and action oriented, solution oriented. And not judge, because its probably going to be something that swells from the bottom up, and that is needed. To give a voice to everyone, to have communities work at understanding one another. Thus, in a city, or the country, things can improve, and independence can begin, off grid, tackle the whole fixed realtor rates, and especially grow food, share food and gardens, network. Its the solutions that need bringing forth, and ones that are win/win for everyone. I see community spirit, and independent living/privacy. They wouldnt have people in the palm of their hands, on their rotation of targetting and disasters like they seem to be doing. The Devil tries to convince everyone he doesn't exist.
