Is that better or worse than the conditioning that we need "more"?Originally Posted by Brian4Liberty
More space, more junk to fill that space, more bills, more debt, more, more, more.
I live in a tiny house and it affords me MORE freedom and MORE peace of mind.

I agree.
It doesn't need to be better or worse. The great middle road is for each to decide what is best for them, without being pushed one direction or the other.

Obviously debt is bad for an individual, but great for the lenders.
I have known minimalists who like to have less "junk". They achieve that by throwing a lot of perfectly good things away. They tend towards disposable items.
What is harder on the environment, a hoarder who doesn't buy much, or a very sparse person who consumes a lot and generates a lot of garbage?

I've heard people say they want to live in their car or in a travel trailer, because they don't want to pay property taxes.
Yeah well, Obama's an idiot, so this isn't really news at all.

There is only one correct way: freedom. All other solutions are non-solutions.
It appears that artificial intelligence is at least slightly superior to natural stupidity.

Don't look now but there are property taxes on cars and RVs.

You know that former CEO of Exxon is a dummy.
U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson signed his name Thursday to a document that affirms the need for international action against climate change recognizing that activities taking place outside the Arctic region, including activities occurring in Arctic states, are the main contributors to climate change effects and pollution in the Arctic, and underlining the need for action at all levels During his confirmation hearing, Tillerson said he had concluded as a scientist and engineer that "the risk of climate change does exist" and that "action should be taken." While some of Trump’s closest aides have urged him to do withdraw from the Paris accord, Tillerson, the former chief executive of Exxon, is among those who have argued that the U.S. should keep its commitment.
You are seriously in the running for the most interesting man in the forum. Are you trying to say when you fart in the elevator, the rest of the people break out in applause?
You misquoted me.
Ah yes, the one third.

No rails around the loft. I wonder how long it will take before one of them rolls off?
I lived in a travel trailer for a few years when I was younger, some of best years of my life. It had everything I needed in a small space and was portable.
Yeah...I'm no commune guy...but I live on 2 acres of land and could probably do with a lot less unless I planted a garden. It takes a lot of upkeep and wasted time to take care of a yard. And for every room you have that's another Saturday of hours taken away from family and friends to have to clean it all.

Yep, it's conditioning for living in tiny spaces, per agenda 21. At least the last time the economy was really in the $#@!ter because of guns 'n butter, a mobile home/trailer had a lot of space relative to those tiny things. And they want $50k+ plus for some of those matchboxes! Crazy.

Irby and Suen built the loft in Irby’s Oakland, California, warehouse, shown here, then delivered and assembled it on-site so the couple wouldn’t have to be out of their studio. (The process took two days. Nicole stayed at a friend’s house, while Donnie slept on an air mattress in the kitchen.)

Keeping up with the Jones's is always a bad idea, whether you live in a small house or large one.
I think a lot of the tiny homes are really cool. The only thing that bugs me is the climate change folks push for everyone to live stacked on top of each other in cities. I don't care what size my house is but I need space. I'd chose to live in a shack and have space before I'd live in a fancy loft.
Al Gore was promoting packing people in cities with no cars at Davos a few years ago.
http://www.businessinsider.com/plan-...ut-cars-2015-1A Plan Is Floating Around Davos To Spend $90 Trillion Redesigning All The Cities So They Don't Need Cars
Part of fighting climate change will mean redesigning, or building anew, towns and cities without cars, Calderon says.
"We cannot have these cities with low density, designed for the use of cars," he said. "We recommend those cities should have more density and more mass transportation." Together with a program for reforming land use, and bringing deforestation to zero, the total cost of this plan would most likely be $90 trillion in future investment, Calderon said.
Tampa is developing the first official A21 condo. 300sqft and no cars allowed. For only $800 per month. A steal, I tell ya. Gotta love the picture in the article with it's "stretch" lens trickery.

-------------------------------------The apartments would be 300-400 square feet. Lots of big windows. They'd have all the necessary appliances. Even a murphy bed that folds up into the wall during the day to save space. There would also be a large common area for times when you wanted to hang out with friends. The rent is about 800 dollars a month.
Nailed it on my Chinese beef post earlier in the thread. We get China's poorly raised chicken and they get our beef. Thanks Wilbur Ross!

Cooked chicken from birds grown and raised in China soon will be headed to America — in a trade deal that's really about beef.
Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross announced Thursday night that the U.S. was greenlighting Chinese chicken imports and getting U.S. beef producers access to China's nearly 1.4 billion consumers.

That's the size of my kitchen. I don't think there's enough room for all four of us to sleep, eat, and live in there. As a matter of fact, I bet Mr Animal would kill us all within a week...tops.

The $800 for 300sqft price tag should tell everyone where the value of the dollar will be in the next year or so.That's the size of my kitchen.

If you'll be living in a 20x20 box I guess you won't be defined as a person at all, since you won't have space for a dining set.

We all end up in a box eventually, well maybe sometimes a vase or something. I wanna end up in a huge mayo jar for sure.
No but it sure is nice to have a comfortable place to enjoy meals.
What's the rush?
