The solution is to live like the Amish, not religiously like them but in practice. Maybe their way of life wouldn't work without religion, I dunno. There are things called *Intentional Communities.* I can't think of a better way to live sustainably than in large communes. You have to be able to live in a system where you don't have %%all%% the conveniences that come with living under a state authority. With technology, you could have a closed internet with each house providing a link in the communication. There was a crypto coin that was based off of getting an actual hardware router of some kind to build out a meshnet. Someone or a group of people would have to own a very large piece of land, have a closed economy (based on Bitcoin because I don't think anything else would work except for gold and silver) where there is no outside bank. The largest wealth holders would be the ones collecting the mortgages (without usury of any kind). No taxes. The community has to learn to be completely self-sustainable while still allowing for importing of outside goods like vehicles, power tools and other manufactured things. The most important thing is that every family would have to be contributing to the food supply in some way, whether that be fruits/veggies or animals of some kind. The catch is that the enemy government would never allow this proof-of-concept to flourish. Once they find out that people are able to live sustainably without paying taxes and using banks, they're going to come and take the houses away. That is the part where people need to commit to "ride or die" and defend their property. The community doesn't work when the people and families don't work. You cannot have the mindset that some outside force is going to come and save the day (not that the government does this anyway; they let communities go to shit all the time everywhere.) That's it. This is all really difficult and it's a lot easier to fantasize about how this would work, meanwhile there are large communities actually living this way.

Just a couple of more things. You really do have to buy in and have an actual stake in this kind of community. It's not like being a useless immigrant and leeching off the system while taking everything you can without contributing. You have to be extremely careful about letting in people that don't pull their own weight, not that that would be easy to hide in such closeknit communities anyway. Everyone knows everyone, basically. No one can get away with being a sociopath like they do in our current political system
