    @Habahnow @PastaCeci “I want to do it my self” says man purchasing petrol from Iraq to fuel a car manufactured by thousands of people and assembled in a dozen countries.

    Anyone actually doing things by themselves isn’t concerned with car policy as they know they can’t produce a car.

    They already are happy to purchase things from a store that have been delivered to that store in a collective way, what is weird about getting wood delivered to their property?

      I feel this is such an dramatic and reaching response it’s almost like your intentionally being obtuse.

      Some people like reducing their reliance on other people. It seems I need to emphasize the word REDUCE. I chose that word specifically instead of remove because as you pointed out, removing reliance on others is very difficult. These people sre the type of people I am referring to when I say they like to do things on their own.
