Way back in the late 1800’s most North Americans worked at home. They had to cut trees for heat in the winter and for the stove. They grew their own food and tended to various animals. They made their own clothes. Ford when he opened factories had a tough time hiring people because of home work.

Good for you. But as Robert Evans keeps saying a lot of people aren’t going to be able to do this.

Well of course. Our forests would be nude in months and 90% don't have enough land for growing food and animal husbandry. And the ones that do won't be able to fend off the teeming hoards should shit really go down. I've stopped planning for the future. Eat, drink and be merry!
