Why does all the focus here resolve around growing all your own food 100%?. Food is hella cheap already and if you have no income you get food stamps. It's such a tiny expense (6%)that if you can't afford it you can't afford your iPhones either so you won't do it anyway so fuck off It's like an argument that someone would use who doesn't want you to homestead because then they don't profit from you.

More productive discussion could focus on building a cabin or she'd or unconventional incomes by crafting or animal husbandry or specialty crops instead of imaginary cockblocks
