Books like The Moneyless Man: A Year of Freeconomic Living

Started reading this for the adventure and the idea. Put off by the theorizing and sermonizing about all the bad we do to the planet. I do applaud him for trying to make a change for a year but now its back to money Il sure. The problem here is that although he advocates that he didn't use his own money everything he had to do cost someone somewhere some money. Whether it was a few years ago or a few hundred years ago everything cost someone something. There are all kinds of cast off things but money had to pay for them. His stove cost someone something at one time. If you really want to live with no money including that of others then start with nothing. Absolutely nothing. No clothes. No Food. Nothing. What can you create on your own? Nothing. You have no power to do anything. All you can do is use your wits and expect others kindness to help you. Unfortunately all of that only goes so far. It pretty much breaks down to a person getting help from others (welfare state anybody) and not making any money of their own. He worked hard for the things he had to get but someone else had to help him constantly. Foraging (stealing) from people's trash cans? Guess what the food you eat cost someone something and you didn't save the planet by eating something they already paid for. Pizza deliver guy drove his gas guzzling car to deliver it to the house. Use of another cardboard box to deliver a pizza in. Paper Napkins used to clean up. Now live this way the rest of your life and I'll respect you. Don't ever touch money again.
