<blockquote><p>JustLive.us was started by the creators of <a title="JustGetThere blog home" href="http://justgetthere.us/blog">JustGetThere</a>. After witnessing and being involved in numerous failed attempts at political activism and change in government, we came to the conclusion that <strong>there is no solution within the state system that will bring about true freedom.</strong></p>
<p>Thus, we believe that <strong>the only viable way to bring about this goal, is to undermine the state system by operating outside of its purview and control.</strong> We believe that this should be done peacefully, <em>without violence or coercion</em>, and without political action (<em>e.g.</em>, voting, lobbying, etc.).</p>
<p>While these are our beliefs, <strong>JustLive.us is designed to provide information and resources to any and all who seek to go off-grid, or to reduce their dependency on others for survival.</strong> We welcome fellow travelers and hope that the information we supply will be found useful to a broad audience — whatever their own beliefs may be.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-219" title="human-consciousness" src="http://justlive.us/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/human-consciousness.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="265" />I came across a great post on <a href="http://www.puppetgov.com/2010/03/04/swaraj-self-rule-we-are-the-satyagraha-truth-force-we-are-the-ones-we-have-been-waiting-for/"><em>PuppetGov,</em></a> that included a statement from Ghandi about using civil disobedience and non-compliance against a tyrannical State.</p>
<blockquote><p>Government control gives rise to fraud, suppression of Truth, intensification of the black market and artificial scarcity. Above all, it unmans the people and deprives them of initiative, it undoes the teaching of self-help…I look upon an increase in the power of the State with the greatest fear because, although while apparently doing good by minimizing exploitation, it does the greatest harm to mankind by destroying individuality which lies at the heart of all progress&#8230;</p>
<p>Civil disobedience becomes a sacred duty when the state has become lawless or corrupt. And a citizen who barters with such a state shares in its corruption and lawlessness…Every citizen is responsible for every act of his government…There is only one sovereign remedy, namely, non-violent non-cooperation. Whether we advertise the fact or not, the moment we cease to support the government it dies a natural death….</p></blockquote>
<p>I agree with this statement in some aspects, but our approach at <em>JustLive </em> is a little more proactive, and focuses on self-sufficient solutions outside of the system, instead of trying to change the system through political action.<br />
<span id="more-215"></span><br />
It&#8217;s the system itself that is evil. Therefore, replacing the individuals within the system, never results in a change of the system.  More times than not, the individual is warped, and compromises their integrity, in order to work within it.</p>
<p>This video from the <em>PuppetGov</em>, shows us the all to familiar tyrannical system that feeds on our fear.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="500" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=5412622&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=&amp;fullscreen=1" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="385" src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=5412622&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=&amp;fullscreen=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p><a href="http://vimeo.com/5412622">We Are The Ones We Have Been Waiting For</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user1959725">PuppetGov</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p>
<p>Grassroot activists work well against the system with small numbers, but once the group grows, they succumb to infighting, cointelpro tactics or are co-opted by the very system that they are trying to defeat. A perfect example of this, is the recent <em>Tea Party</em> grassroots movement. Once their idea hit a certain level of popularity, it was usurped by the talking heads of CNBC, Fox News, and finally the GOP, with Sarah Palin as the frontwoman.</p>
<p>This new version of the <em>Tea Party</em>, was a 180 degrees different philosophically from the founding ideals. This is the result of fighting against a system that owns the media, uses slick propaganda, and can print money out of thin air. A better approach would be for large group of individuals to drop out the system completely, and focus on creating a non-centralized system that would truly benefit the individual.</p>
<p>Can you imagine if the time, money, and energy that we expend fighting this system, was applied to want we wanted instead? During the 2008 Ron Paul presidential campaign run, his supporters banned together and during a <em>money bomb</em>, raised $4.3 million in one day. With him not being elected, the money had no lasting beneficial outcome. If we could raise money like that for political reasons, that in most cases results in no change whatsoever, why can&#8217;t we do that to help forge a system that is off-the-grid and promotes individual self-sufficiency.</p>
<p>This idea is revolutionary, and is a paradigm shift that we should be pursuing, instead of constantly throwing our money, time and energy at a old corrupt system, which only legitimizes it and results in apathy.</p>
<p>The solution lies within you, and therefore can be tailor made to fit your unique circumstances. This is the goal of this new site, to gather information that you can use, that will help you get off-the-grid, physically, mentally and spiritually. We are moving forward with a new focus on ourselves, instead of matters out of our control. Awareness is essential, but the question is always asked, <em>&#8220;what do I do?&#8221;</em> Hopefully over the course of our journey here at <em>JustLive</em>, we can provide enlightening information that will help you find the solution that works for you.</p>
<p>Instead of focusing on the fear based system that is currently ruling this world. I would rather focus on the infinite greatness that we can achieve if we follow our intuition, and use our intention, to manifest a new reality outside the bounds of our current perception.</p>
