A friend of mine has been working on self-improvement now for a few years and I have been helping him out where I can. His objective is to be more self reliant and less dependent on the state. In practical terms it means he has taken the plunge and moved to New Hampshire, refused state aid, and is learning to be more independent. For him this means learning to traverse the town on his own, do his own grocery shopping, and get to and from various nearby places where we have held weekly social events by himself.
This is frankly amazing as he's been told his entire life that he'd be depended on the state and others for the rest of his life. You see the reason for that is my friend is blind. However what we have been led to believe and what many people with disabilities have been led to believe is that those with various sorts of problems couldn't do this or that and then given only one option: take money from the state. What most don't know is that this money comes with strings attached that hold the more ambitious, like my friend here, back. If he were taking money from the state he'd be unable to take a job.
The truth is he can work when people give him a chance. He's a professional in the audio production world editing podcasts. He's now started a new business as a baker making and selling bread.
For 1 Goldback (or an equivalent in crypto, about $7-8) you can now get fresh extremely delicious bread in Keene, New Hampshire. This is until the state comes in and shuts him down for baking bread without a license.
It's time to end the state and let people get back to being productive human beings. My friend has been living independently for the past two years and soon won't need any help that he can't get through free market solutions.
