He seems to be saying that we must either choose anarchism or corporatism? Or that building codes and other regulation is a slippery slope to poverty and fascism?
Anyone can build off-grid if they want to, as long as they purchase their land and pay property tax. OP admitted to being mostly libertarian, so I think they’re really just complaining about taxes. I personally think libertarianism is a slippery slope to anarchism, because taxes are what pay for roads, police, firefighters, etc.
No one ever gets my points. No one can build off grid if they want to because they have to buy the land. It was never like that if we were to go back to the U.S. in the late 1700s.
Property tax and income tax I’m against. But I said that I do believe in governance at the local level, and as long as it’s constitutional. So taxes on gas for instance to pave the roads is sorta ok in my book.
You think you understood his comment?
No. I didn’t.

You must have the wrong comment then. They didnt mention building codes. You’re the only one mentioning building codes.
My state doesn’t have building codes.
My state is still shitty for poor people. Probably more shitty than states with building codes
Why the fuck are we talking about building codes?
To be fair to my egregious summarization he kicks off by saying life would be better if people could just build homes off the grid.
