Community halls and gathering places and sharing of talents is important in a self-sufficient community but the idea of owning a small piece was important. In my experience this is true. People who own their land and build their own dwellings put their consciousness into it. It becomes a part of who they are, their vibration. People who only rent land or houses do not care for their dwellings in the same way as those who own. So, with that in mind, is it possible for people to buy small parcels of nearby land to own for themselves but also to contribute to a self-sufficient community?
Actually, it beggars belief to me that other people have not responded to your thread!!! Seems as though many would rather study the doom and gloom and moan about how terrible everything is than take any steps to actually "do" something to preserve themselves or their families.

Hey Carmen, I'm not overly surprised about the lack of responses. Although this is a great and generous offer, I believe home is where your heart is. Having been born and raised here in America, I couldn't think of any place I'd rather be than here. I've been all over this country, from border to border, coast to coast, and there's plenty of places to live safely if anything happens.
I don't care how bad it gets or what actually happens in the future, this is where I want to be! This is the land I know and love, this is where my heart is, this is where friends and family are.
This post is to say thanks John Lee, and also to bump the thread up!
