American Consumer Dream

"I think he makes people angry because they have this belief that if only they had a little more money, they'd be happy," Nash says. "His lifestyle is a challenge to their Holy Grail, the American consumer capitalist dream."

That quote is from an interesting human interest article about a college educated person who lives outside Moab in a cave.

"The point is to live freely, in the present, freely giving and freely taking, which is the way of nature," he says. "The idea is to give up control of credit and debt, and just trust the cycle of nature."
