Self-Sustaining Communities: Empowering Independence
Calorie Independence:
Communities cultivate surplus crops for personal and communal needs.
As community granaries fill, prices decrease, eventually leading to free surplus food.
Transition from capitalism to communal abundance as surplus food stocks grow.
Encouraging Scale and Industry:
Large-scale farming with modern equipment is supported as communities expand.
Industry is accommodated, not suppressed, to meet evolving community needs.
Join us in building self-sustaining communities for a brighter, more resilient future!
