These jobs you are speaking of--washing cars, mowing lawns, even kids working in their parents' store--do you think that is the same as working for a multinational conglomerate handling food with no breaks and minimum wage?

So apparently amateur tunneling can be addictive. Check out tunnel girl Engineer Kala on TikTok if you want to lose your mind on a modern example. William Lyttle is the reining champ; he dug tunnels for fun for 40 years. Destabilized his house, caused sinkholes around town, connected with a rail line.
Yes, and they are being bribed just like our politicians were
My fiance and I are doing it ourselves. It's a tiny house and he has a few years of construction experience. We had to learn a lot on the fly, but it hasn't collapsed yet! Seriously though I bet you can do it, especially with a few mates.
You literally are not doing any labor, and are not getting paid. Is that supposed to be a gotcha?
If any labor were truly unskilled; you could come in day one and perform as well as those who'd been at it for 10 years. I can't think of one thing where that is the case. Does anyone still test if food has been poisoned by eating it first? Little skill, but man if so that person definitely deserves a good wage.
Some violence will be inevitable; but the real power will be when masses of us pull out of the system. Quit your job or work less. Don't make money, dont spend money, buy only what you need second hand or local. Grow your own food, make your own clothes. Don't pay taxes or pay for local permits if you can get away with it. You can help starve the beast so that others might slay it.
I wonder if it's like a translation thing? I bet individuals in these groups don't speak the local language but have a translator. Maybe the translator is too deferential and won't actually translate orders properly so as not to offend their clients. Just pulling a guess out my bum; anyone with real experience know?
You really think those massive, experimental water tanks won't require more maintenance, because you have to trim trees once ever few years? Or because their roots might grow too much?
I have a PhD and wrote an article (that no one will ever read) obliquely criticizing Trump and every once in a while I wonder if that is what will get me shot.... but it will probably be the pipe bombs.
Don't worry, they definitely won't go that route of helping everyone a lot when they could help their people just a little.
