Modern technologies, the hidden ones as well as the blatant ones allow totally off-grid living with some lifestyle modification albeit, but survival, none the less - better than what the impending dollar crash in America has to offer - starvation in the streets and no tools of production remaining to fight against the hunger! When a factory closes in America the tools of production are sold to the highest bidder - often a scrap metal dealer! Everyone loses, save for the shareholder, as our laws of incorporation require! What does that do for the Patriots? They die in the streets without equipment or tools to defend themselves! That's what it means! Everything breaks down! even the homes, built in such fashion as requiring high, steady wages even for their maintenance fall to ruins! Don't believe me!

At the very least, all should have great piles of compost from years of effort - none do! All should have great fields of exceptional fertility surrounding them from bio-gassed sewage sludge! - none do! All should have mature well developed gardens still producing! - none do! All should have environmentally friendly, humane dwellings of zero upkeep, zero running cost design, solar heated, and cozy! None do! All should have Solar hot water heaters on roof tops for basic cleanliness at affordable costs! None do! We build instead, even in America today, McMansions - symbols of our immaturity and foolish pride, and will pay dearly for it as soon as the dollar hits the cellars of Hell in its downward fall, and crashes, impoverishing all!

People think we need to have only one energy source when it's smarter to have multiple sources. I can't wait to see how solar will make so many tech industries more mobile. Great article.
