"...at the end, the main responsibility to put some order in the house lies in the Government."

I cannot agree. It is not the government that will starve if it fails to maintain order nominal to sustain grocers. It is you, and if that happens, it will not happen because the government failed, but because you did. If it happens to you, it's your fault.

I was raised in Alaska, a very beautiful, dangerous place. By the time I was 30 half my high school graduating class was dead. One of my classmates was on a camping trip with her fiance when their boat capsized in a storm. She struggled to reach the distant shore, strove to drag her beloved fiance with her, but could not bear his unconscious weight. She did reach the shore, in desperate danger of dying, soaking wet, cold, and hungry. She made a pile of moss and burrowed into it like a mouse, managing to survive the night. She was rescued the following day, but her fiance was not found for several more, unfortunately drowned. She lived, and he did not.

Many similar events sorted my classmates into the living and the dead.

Men, like wolves, are born wild and free.

We must carry our weight to keep our legacy an inheritance for our posterity. If we do not, and become dependent on others, we may survive, but lose our real value, and our posterity will never know what we are capable of, what we truly are.

This is why I recommend aquaponics, 3D printers, and all the decentralized means of production that have recently advented. Not because I envy the wealth of overlords, but because I do not. I don't want what is theirs. I don't want you to be dependent on masters, either. I want to live in a world of free, prosperous men that merit what they have.

Like wolves, men are social animals, I am confident I want to live in a free society of men, not pampered pets.

To domesticate a wolf, you must capture them as puppies and raise them in captivity. We have been domesticated from birth. Very few domesticated animals break free and succeed in the wild, but I have been hunting in the high mountains here and encountered feral cattle, escaped from some dairy or ranch and living off the land. While I was indoctrinated in public school, I also was raised in a small town surrounded by a large wilderness, which enabled me to learn to live in that wilderness as well as in town.

Perhaps it is this dual understanding that compels me to see how owning the means of production myself enables me to both enjoy the blessings of civilization that I make myself, and do so free of masters, not dependent on their provision of those blessings as we were taught to be.

I am literally a government free zone. I alone will my heavy hand to rise to my weary brow and wipe away the dripping sweat of my hard labor. I owe no man the product of my labor. My property is the fruit of my will, that I alone have produced, and I alone merit. If I fail, the thieves that demand my property will not starve. I will. If I succeed those thieves do not deserve the fruits of my will any more than they deserve to starve when I produce no fruit.

Because I have been indoctrinated from birth to be a slave to masters that demand the fruit of my will, I suffer theft by fraud, deceived to misunderstand what I am and who they are. They are not my masters. They are thieves. I am not a slave, a helpless dependent on my owners - if I make what I need. When I make what I need I am independent, and independence is freedom. I merit my freedom or my slavery, my life or my death. There are no excuses. If it happens to me it's my responsibility.

I live in a society, and have often willingly served little old ladies, whom needed my services but had no money to pay. I have many times happily accepted their goodwill for their new floors, decks, and repairs to their homes, because I had the ability to provide those things and they needed them. When a corporation purchased the land where I have lived for eight years, serving the community in which I lived, they illegally evicted me, and trespassed me from the property, preventing me from recovering my personal property by threat of arrest. The little old ladies, my neighbors, crawled under my trailer and unhooked the sewer, the water, the electricity, recovered my pots and garden, and as much of my possessions as they could before the corporation stole it. What they could not secure, the corporation stole. That good service I provided my good neighbors was as good as gold. Being free does not make me larcenous, greedy, or selfish, and doing good work for good people for goodwill is not a loss. Government, like the corporations they charter, are not my good neighbors, and does not need my services, my property, for free, but steals it. That is a loss. That is the difference between society, which is people capable of goodwill and mutual affection, and institutions like governments and corporations, which are not.

That is the legacy I intend my sons to inherit, and nothing can excuse my failure to deliver a society of free men to my posterity, because nothing can excuse me for delivering my sons into slavery, the property of governments and corporations.

I encourage you to ensure by your own hand, by your own will, that you and your son do not starve, that my sons will live in a society of free, prosperous men because your sons are such men.
