Default I'm here for like-minded friends!

I'm starting a group of collectives that will slowly become self-sustained (by sharing farms & mini-factories).

This may be a good forum for getting the right people... Are you tired of school/work? & want more time for your own projects?

This is the idea: Root solutions
The first collective seem to be created in Sweden, but anyone can contribute with ideas -- as its all just a big experiment!
An experiment of fundamentally changing how you live, & abandon old corrupt beliefs of society & to really threat people as you whould like to be threated!
We will live by a simple philosophy rather than having specific rules of how to live...
Please help us get self-sustained! We can cure starvation, & maybe even wars by this solution.

Well, to be honest, I don't really understand what you are getting at.

Take this sentence for example:

An experiment of fundamentally changing how you live, & abandon old corrupt beliefs of society & to really threat people as you whould like to be threated!

For starters, I like how I live. Second, what corrupt beliefs exactly? Third, I already treat people as I would like to be treated..

I know it's only directed toward certain people, & I may later specify problems of society.
But streaming from my mind right now I whould say: We are ruled by companies & government, & all they want is to make money & earn more power for themselves & less for the people -- they don't care of your freedom or wellbeing.
They keep you dumbed-down by religion, education & media to get what they want.
The drug companies are a good example! Anyone that have devoted lots of time to research how to get more energy & health through natural methods know that drugs are useless! If we all were born healthy & grown up in a healthy environment with a healthy life-style, there won't even be any special-cases where drugs are needed...

Welcome Gnitraster,

I think maybe I know what you're saying. Have you seen the movie or read the book, "Into the Wild." Or how about, "On The Road," by Jack Kerouac. Or how about, "Walden," by Henry David Thoreau.

These books and movie all tell the story of people getting away from society and experiencing the world. I recommend them all.

Do you attend college? because I know exactly what you mean by doing useless papers and projects that teach me absolutely nothing. It's very ironic that students do very little thinking in college.

"I never let my schooling get in the way of my education." -Mark Twain
