I believe Steve intended for the idea to only exist within the monetary system. If we were to abolish the monetary system altogether, people would gradually return to farming their own land in order to attain sustainable living for themselves and their families. What you're describing sounds more like the initial chaos that would ensue within metropolitan areas following a sudden collapse of said system, because that is where most people who've come to depend solely on money and government for their basic survival needs reside.
A lot of Steve's articles are only relevant so long as the monetary system remains in place - be it generating passive income, turning what you love into a profitable business, manifesting wealth, etc... and I think he is fully aware of this.
Just my thought on the matter.
