If at all possible, complete independence from the grid makes you a strong, incorruptible contributer to society and able to see all things in a very clear light!In times of brown or blackout you become an island of sanity and safety, quite able to survive by your own means for extended time periods, hence free to contribute in times of disaster! By reducing the civil responsibility of the power companies, we reduce their political prowess, and can make realistic demands socially and otherwise on them, we are not "beholden" to them - a good thing when negotiating with giants and power hungry despot corporations, well oiled by bribes from local thieving politicians and "owners". Independence is what America used to be about! The six-gun is being replaced by the garden plot, windmills and solar cells. Six gun Freedoms!
