A few thoughts. Getting away from big pharma, big govt, big corporations, is a must in order to end the brainwashing. I homeschooled my kids after realizing in kindergarten that my son was in harm's way (20 years ago). I had to "relearn" the idea that education is not what the state tells us it is. Finding the nationwide network of other homeschoolers opened my eyes to the possibilities and the new life choice, the choice to take my children's well being back into my hands and fight for my right to protect the direction of my child's education and well being, which goes hand in hand. Keeping homeschooling legal requires us to stay vigilant. "Health" and "human rights" are the pretexts used by the state to take away our children, to "protect" our children from we parents who love them more than any stranger. Together as we network and SHARE INFORMATION, there is less censorship and greater strength in numbers. We as citizens need to network in the same way on a larger scale.

In the same way homeschoolers network, we can network to share alternatives to big pharma and corporations and stay vigilant for laws that threaten our freedom. This is a requirement in order for us to be a free country. We are not free when we blindly accept doctors as those who "know best". This goes for pastors, teachers, government officials, etc. WE need to own our sovereignty, and we do not need these big institutions to lead us. I never shopped at Costco because I could never afford it. As a homeschooler living on one income in CA, we lived within our means, which meant we never ate out. We didn't do things we could not afford. We had a simple house. We struggled financially but we stayed out of debt. There were times I only had flour and a few ingredients, but we made cinnamon rolls. My kids didn't know the difference. People still tell me that I was lucky I had the luxury to do this, but it was a CHOICE, a lifestyle choice. We were dirt poor.
