Sovereignty

Minimum Wage in Eden is $15/hour. And that is about $2,000/Month. But that is barely enough to pay the rent in the Big Cities, because wages have not been keeping up with the Cost of Living. 


But the cost of Rent doesn't go down, because the cost of Building Materials always goes up, no matter where we build our homes. And that is because the value of our money is going down, so some of us may have to double up, to share the rent. But we can live on much less money in Eden.  


Food will be Home Grown,  Water will be Free, and Power will be too. We can build Smaller-Homes, and we can pair people up, to share a New Home. But we have to be Realistic. There is No Free Lunch. Everything has to be Earned. 

 

Why? We are the Resistance. To What? Forced-Globalism. We are BioRegional Activists, which is the next step, on the Journey, to establish our Tribal-Sovereignty. 


That Sovereignty will be the Basis of our Freedom. And that will allow us to retain some control over our own Lives, and the Trees, and the Wildlife, and the Rivers and the Natural Resources, in our Local-Watersheds, and our Local-Economies.  - T

Sanctuary Village

Eden EcoVillage in Northern California is meant to become a Sanctuary, and a Safe-Haven that will serve those super fine people, within the Shasta BioRegion, who Walk in Peace, and who seek Refuge from the Storms that are brewing, in this Rapidly Changing-World. 


But nothing is free, and so that Rescue from Deportation, or Divorce, or whatever it is, will all have to be Earned.


But the Community is all about being in Good-Relationship, with other Kind and Gentle People, who we know that we can Trust. 


And we all Contribute here, so we have to know who these people are, who might need some help, and what they can do, before we can stick our necks out. 


But then we hope to Save a Whole Lot of People, from a lifetime of being Rejected, by Society, or losing their Welfare, Medicaid, or their Food Stamp Benefits, or even their DACA Protections, which have all been stripped back this year.  


We are making a Home for the Outcasts, and  the Misfits, and the Rejects, who might not know where else they can go, to find Peace and Security, among good folks, where they will be supported, if they are willing to work, and are a good fit socially.   - T

Asset Driven Community

Eden is to be an Asset-Driven Community that is not Built on Empty-Promises. And we do have to agree on the Rules, and the Limits on Home-Sizes, and the Number of Homes, and the Number of People, who can live in those Homes, and how much land each Home would need to have, for Healthy-Spacing, and EcoLogical-Integrity, just to Save the Earth, and to have a better quality of life, which has been Optimized for Peace, Privacy, and Social-Integration, while Living-Lightly on the Land. 

Most People need a certain amount of Private Outdoor-Space, as well as Shared Outdoor-Space. And they may need to have Friends, who are all doing the same things, like growing their own Food, and building their own Homes, and taking care of the Lands, which are held collectively, like the Community-Gardens, the Open-Spaces, the Creeks, the Lakes, and the Trails, into the Surrounding Forest-Lands.  And that will give us some Commonality. - T
