Obviously there are limits on "freedom." As I keep saying -- it's RELATIVE, not absolute.
"Self sufficiency" may be a pipe dream. It is abundantly clear to me that not everyone can live in a state of self-sufficiency because it's not a very efficient way to live and there is limited space. Specialization is what makes it possible to support the population we have in the limited space we have.
We really can't go backwards to "the good old days" without going back to the population level we had in the past.
