grow our own food. get your own water. build your own house and community. work for what you need. what we work for is what we get. this is the way to do it. having a silver spoon shoved up our collective asses won't accomplish anything and is exactly what the negative forces in this world want as they lead us to the slaughter house. lets not make that happen.

In other realities or planets all the needs of their people are taken care of...because of that people have the opportunity to use their creativity and grace the universe with wonderful new varieties of plants, animals, worlds etc.
Somebody, somewhere has to do the creating, maybe this is our time...
I would suggest to explore Alan Watts and Terence Mackenna to understand how "culture" have been created to make us believe that the sole purpose of life is to work ourselves to dead...it is as I see it a very convenient "belief" to implant in your slaves if one belongs to the ruling classes.
In planet earth work has been sold to the inhabitants as noble and right, paying taxes makes you a "good" citizen, even if your money is used to kill people on nonsensical wars; having a job makes you "desirable", etc.,
But reality is very different, 95 pct of working people are dissatisfied with their jobs and a wopping 45 pct suffers from chronic stress
Stress is the single most important cause behind chronic illnesses like strokes, heart disease and even cancers...
I don't believe that one's job should become one's identity but that is how our western society works
What is wrong with having your needs meet and colaborating with your creativity for the common good
We are something else than our labels, aren't we?
