@nerblebun appalachian mountains and rocky mountains in the US are perfect, I live about a 30 minute drive from the smoky mountains and thats where i'd go, u can walk a mile in one direction and be somewhere no one has ever stepped foot just like that.

The problem is...finding a place to live off the land where officials don't hassel you. Cops,Rangers, ect. Not many plases in the U.S. where you cand just go build a cabin in the woods without somebody wanting permits and of course...taxes.

We forget how much we don't need. The more you're forced to buy the more you're forced to earn. That's the set up manufactured trap of the elite establishment. Everything's deemed too dangerous and outlawed as a result. Reject it. Reject the very notion of being told and of telling others what to do. Remember that every time you're tempted to vote for a law that does anything but allow others to choose for themselves, their property including animals, and their own children.
