I see nothing wrong with picking berries and hunting deer. That's self sufficiency, that's they individuals are supposed to live. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with certain modes of farming. The two methods of getting food are not mutually exclusive, that's the nature of true freedom--it isn't a single form imposed upon all system. I used the term "neo"-tribalism to differentiate it from the primitive variety.
The word "society" is another nonsense word. There is no such thing as society, it's a collective abstraction that can mean almost anything depending on whomever is using it. Usually the term society is just another way to say conform. Thoreau was correct when he said that society everywhere was a conspiracy against the individual.
As to resources, you're wrong. It is not a zero sum situation. We have limitless resources, and as beneficial technology progresses there are limitless ways to go about utilizing them.
There is no "right wing". There is no "left wing". There are just power mad freaks, the dullards they control, and those who resist. Now not all of those that resist are 100 percent, most of that category is totally wrong, i.e., they're against the free market which simply means unfettered competition--which if allowed to occur would make it impossible for corporations to form. A multi-national corporation is never a good thing, they are all just oligopolies controlled by a global oligarchy through interlocking directorates. Bill Gates is not the richest man in the world, he is small potatoes compared with the trillionaires who really rule the world.
All a free market requires is one man who can produce a salable product, eventually that may build into something larger, but the basis of it all is private property.
The problem is that I don't want to be protected, I want to be allowed to protect myself. That's the true function of legitimate government--merely to foster an environment where people can thrive, take care of themselves. Welfare is organized theft, no different from a highway bandit a hundred years ago. It makes no difference why the bandid steals your stuff, he's a theif and he's in the wrong. Even if that bandit has the intention of using the stolen loot to help homeless people it is theft and is wrong. Charities took care of people much better than governments. I only wish the mythical "right wing" were trying to evicerate welfare, instead they've dramatically expanded it. The size of government has more than doubled under the republican wing of the power demon. Centralized power anywhere and everywhere is evil--every man with such power is a potential Hitler, there are no exceptions.
Another thing that's enslaved us is the fake money that the Federal Reserve prints out of thin air. We need a real currency with which to facilitate the free trade of goods and services. The free market worked, that's why the robber barons had to destroy it. It's why the Rockefeller motto is "Competition is a sin".
There is no way to end all warfare, but which is better the neo-tribal wars of limited scope or the global wars that are cyclically engineered in order to get the sheep to bleat for global government? Once a great cataclysm washes away the flotsam and jetsam progress can be made in the right direction. There is no way to wake the majority of people up--that's why the majority never has and never will matter; they are merely in the way. It is always a dedicated minority that changes things, whether it be for better or worse. This is why democracy is a total lie, it simply doesn't exist and if it did it would still be a terrible thing because freedom can't be built on the shifting sands of the masses.
The UN is evil. The Democrats are evil. The Republicans are evil. The moron masses are just in the way.
I will not change as I grow older, this I know. Because quite frankly I don't intend on living my life as a slave, which probably means I'll have a short life but that doesn't matter at all. What matters is the force of freedom.

You can redefine society to fit your thought patterns if you wish. We have the technology we have today because of individuals who made great discoveries that were built on by other individuals. Yes individuals can work together and not be collectivists.
Life is a easier which means people are complacent slaves--over fed slaves.
"So, the total mass of the planet is limitless?"
You neglect that poritions of the planet are renewable. You also neglect the other planets of the universe which we'd already have colonies on by now if it weren't for NASA and other government space agencies' monopoly on space.
"The number of trees for furniture, fuel, construction.. limitless?"
Renewable in a limitless fashion. Do you think it would be economically wise for a land owner to strip mine his property and thereby destroy its value? This is why under a free market a smalltime forester will plant more trees than he cuts down.
"You can kill all the animals you want, there'll be more?"
Again limitlessly renewable. In case you have forgotten, animals reproduce in great abundance when left to their own devices. The world will never run out of chicken nuggets, even under the current neofeudalist slave grid sans free market.
"Look at the North American Bison..."
One instance of stupid unmitigated obliteration that occured because there weren't fences and property owners and bison ranchers.
"There's enough fresh water for everyone all over?"
Remember the news articles years back that suggested that today's fresh water supply consisted mainly of dinosaur urine? There is a natural filter for water, there are also great gravity water filters. So yes, water is quite abundant. You can point to third world countries that have no semblance of a free market and the commons are totally polluted like a public restroom. This is why freedom would make for cleaner water.
"Never a shortage or supply problem?"
You really underestimate human ingenuity don't you? Such problems are surmounted and always have been. New ways of using resources, new technology, etc.
"Move to the desert..."
Already have. You'd be surprised how much life there is out here in the Mojave, just as there is in all the deserts of the world.
"Enough land for every person to have 'plenty' for farming and hunting?"
Of course. Why not?
"If there's 'limitless' resources, why does the U.S. consume near 40% of what's available in the world today?"
40 percent of what's produced. Over 6000 years of recorded history and we still haven't stopped producing things in great abundance. It's not zero sum.
"It used to be more, but we're downsizing our industrial base."
Hooray for McJobs and Walmartization. Deindustrialization is another reason we're slaves. The idea that the US needs to equalize it's consumption with that of other countries is collectivistic and tyrannical--let them catch up to us. A free market would literally solve all our problems.
"The human race is doubling in size every 14 - 18 years (on average)..."
I doubt these figures. There's no way you can be sure of any global population count. But even if they're correct, poverty cause people to screw like rabbits. Free market cures poverty and hence would cure any localized over-population. Are you a Malthusian?
"Physics contradicts your 'beliefe'"
Energy is neither created nor destroyed only transformed.
"What of those who can't chase down a deer.. let them starve?"
This is what charities were for. Making government the big charity and caretaker of people is an impossibility. Government doesn't want to nor can it help people.
"What if you get a band of 10 guys.. go out and kill 30 deer and send 5 out to scare off the rest so no one else 'in that area' can get their own.. then what? should the government tell you no? but that's interfering with your 'freedom'.. and your "free market".. right?"
This is what land ownership is all about. You don't make a lot of sense to me because I'm an individualist. You're coming from a zero sum collectivistic perspective that says deers don't reproduce when history proves you wrong. Deers do reproduce.
"..we have a republic where every 4 - 6 years people VOTE on who they want to represent them in the government.."
Nobody can represent me but myself. There's a rigged system where council on foreign relations whores all get together and stage an election like the WWF stages wrestling matches and there's dumb voters who like voting themselves a new frontman for slavery. That's all it is--a total sham. In theory government exists by the consent of the governed--here's the crutch of my argument: I NEVER CONSENTED TO BE SO GOVERNED!
"And, we have 2 levels.. States, which are mostly soverign.."
No, the states are total whores to the federal government. A teeny tiny exampe of this is California's legalization of medical marijuana and the federales saying "Nope, you're our slave and you will do what you say." States' rights went out with the civil war.
"Our government is supposed to be 'chose by the people anew every so often'.. which should technically keep it honest."
How is that supposed to work? On what basis is this assumption made that the majority of the people agreeing on something makes it ok? On what basis is the assumption made that the majority of people are honest? The reality is the majority of people are degenerate scum. The idea that the act of a majority of voters legitimized anything is superstitious nonsense. The idea that a politician is transformed into something special and is granted the right to rule over other people by voters is superstitious nonsense.
The problem is that the will of the people has enabled the government to do what it has. The will, or the lack thereof, of the people let Hitler do what he did. The will, or lack thereof, allowed Mao to massacre tens of millions of Chinese people. The will of the people isn't worth a bucket of pig slop.
"I agree that we have a problem with the Federal Reserve, but it's not 'our' fault.."
Oh but it is, once again the will of the people has utterly failed. Building anything on the will of the people, a vague collectivistic idea in itself, is like trying to build on quicksand.
"the Constitution had protections in place..."
The constitution is a piece of paper and as such it's a dead letter.
"we just let our "leaders" ignore them, flaunt them."
Yeah, there's your will of the people at work again.
Yes the Federal Reserve System isn't federal, there are no reserves and as a system it's nothing more than a scam by the big shareholders--families like the Rockefellers, Rothschilds and the inbred European Royal clans.
"If you really don't like the way it works, head off to the jungle. No one will stop ya.."
You're missing the point entirely. Freedom means having lots of options, if my only option is to leap out into the wilderness as a survivalist, then I'm not free. I want to fix things as well, but not along collectivistic lines, because that's no solution at all.

No Savanster I'm not despondent, merely a realist. Nor do I advocate a return to savagery, just a way out of it. The things you mentioned:
"We all run around killing animals for meat, picking berries for food, sticking our winkies in any woman we can to breed, and kill each other all willy-nilly for stomping grounds and mating rights...only, their government is run by whom ever can beat their chest the best, or kill anyone who tries to take their women."
are exactly the things the human race currently engages in--particularly the government! I advocate a return to freedom, a sort of neo-tribalism where everything is decentralized (like the blogosphere) and governments are very small and easily stomped under freedom's foot if need be. As it is now, we are all totally enslaved. There is no real freedom in the world today.

This is why the country is doomed and has been doomed for about a century. Because people endlessly debate over which political party should be in charge of the mass enslavement. Conservative no longer has any real political meaning, nor do the terms liberal and progressive. These are all nonsense words that infantile slaves banter about. There is only freedom and tyranny, modern day political terms only serve to keep people confused and perpetually debating over how much better their enslavement would be if their dear leaders the ____s were in charge. Rather than being individuals that think for themselves most people are content to join a team--politics has become like sports. The modern day scourge of collectivism has all the fat, stupid, beer swilling TV addled morons acting like the sedated lab rats in a cage that the global elite view them to be. The human race loves hellish totalitarianism, it always has. The aeons pass, the heavens swirl, poles shift, the empires rise and fall but the core belief of the masses remains the same: the human race is like an ant hill, we work, we consume, we die, and we exist only to serve the Queen. A key example of this is the poll of people mentioned above where so many contemptible fools want government healthcare. There's the collectivistic programming of the mass media and government brainwashing system known as public education asserting its dominion over the feeble minds of the hoi polloi. The State is not god and has no right to STEAL from me. But nothing has changed as I said, the constellations may move into new positions but human nature never changes. Humans demand enslavement and call it freedom. The horror of such a death-care system boggle the sane mind--euthanasia, forced abortions, waiting lists a light year long to get some worthless "doctor" who knows absolutely nothing about how to keep the patient well. So count this Hyperindividualist out of this false paradigm of perpetual enslavement, the living death of collectivism. Anyone who still thinks there is such a thing as right vs. left is a fool marching into oblivion--the heroin junkie tripping out in his own world makes more sense than those lunatics.
So yes, Ann Coulter is wrong, this required no power point presentation0--so is Al Franken; so are the progressives...but the majority of humanity, much like the USA itself, is utterly doomed to the Brave New World Order Big Brother control grid nightmare.
__________________________
If the human race is indeed just a pack of advanced animals descended from primordial slime, then there's absolutely no reason to change. We all might as well rape, pillage and have a grand old time until we croak. As a mass of unintelligent beings the smart among us have the job of trying to survive and crush everything that's wrong with the world, and if that means an end to welfare, public education, big government, federal taxation, and all corporations then I'm all for it. Corporations are not compatible with a free market. If only that scumbag puppet FDR hadn't wrecked the free enterprise system...Clinton is scum, Bush is scum and there is a massive conspiracy to murder and enslave all of humanity. The sooner the moronic right vs. left cult members understand the reality of the conspiracy, the sooner some people can get their freedom back. Freedom is taken by force. The elite have taken their freedom at the expense of the dumbed down masses. There is only force in the universe. There is the force of subatomic matter, there is the force of the elite who will impose slavery on an easily duped rabble, and there's the force of some people who are sick of being slaves. Force is energy in motion, for every action an equal and opposite reaction. I want critical mass and would embrace it any day over the docility of complacent popular culture, which is artificially engineered using Frankurt School methods. The Neocons are merely a continuation of the same cabal that McCarthy so bravely went after. There are other 21 year olds like me who know that the world is run by scumbags and that that's the historical norm--it's part of the pathology of power--and we're sick of it. There's a continuum of corruption that is totally ignored by democrat, republican, and progressive cult members. Government has usually been another word for crime syndicate throughout history--of the scum by the scum and for the scum.

Timothy (TruthSeeker24) was 100 percent correct. You don't understand how conspiracies work New Jersey Badger, not everyone who participates in them does so knowingly--most people are duped and have no idea what they're involved in. Once you understand that the word "Government" is usually just a euphemism for crime syndicate and has been throughout history post 127 makes all the sense in the world. 9-11 required no more than 300 people fully in the know. Conspiracies are compartmentalized and have a rings within rings pattern. There is the inner core that directs everything, and their orders ripple out like the concentric ripples of a stone throne into a pond. Then there are all the outer circles of power.
I used to wonder how Hitler could have gotten away with burning the Reichstag, but then I realized that most people are totally oblivious fools and that "government" is just another word for mafia and once that occured it all made perfect sense. The world has always been run by evil people, that's the pathology of power--the psychopaths are attracted to it like magnets. All throughout history governments have virtually been nothing but mass murdering regimes controlled by elite megalomaniacs--that's what history is. Those that respect "government" as a legitimate enterprise when it's really a criminal enterprise are the totally oblivious fools and unfortunately they vote regularly. The act of voting legitimizes--in the minds of those who do it and respect it--the illegitimate power monopoly of the state. It is all symptomatic of mass insanity, pavlovian conditioning, dereistic thought patterns that have been programmed into the populace via advanced mind control techniques.
