"You do realize that *everyone* is dependent of the hands of others, correct? Being self-employed does not rid of this."
I shop at the grocery not because I must, but only 'cause it's convenient.
That I use conveniences is not synonymous with being 'dependent' on them.
And: I didn't say I was 'self-employed' (as in, I work for myself but still rely on the community to live); I said 'I self-employ'...I employ (use) myself (in making a living, providing for myself, taking care of 'me', etc.).
I'm ready for the Zombie Apocalypse or anything else coming down the pike, including the (unlikely) possibility 'occupancy' might actually result in 'communitarian heaven' (heaven with a politburo)...
