Self-sufficiency is the state of not requiring any aid, support, or interaction, for survival; it is therefore a type of personal or collective autonomy. The term self-sufficiency is usually applied to varieties of sustainable living in which nothing is consumed outside of what is produced by the self-sufficient individuals. Examples of attempts at self-sufficiency include simple living, homesteading, off-the-grid, survivalism, DIY ethic and the back-to-the-land movement. Practices that enable or aid self-sufficiency include autonomous building, permaculture, sustainable agriculture, and renewable energy. The term is also applied to limited forms of self-sufficiency, for example growing one's own food or becoming economically independent of state subsidies.

Perhaps in a similar way to psycopaths, yes. But watch from 49:24.

Well one of the problems is how we are now using the word "culture" . Not much of what goes on in the media has much "cultural" value nor will it have any historical cultural significance.

While staying in a Passionist monastery, working in the garden and kitchen with no TV, internet, mobile and no traffic, no stress, no business, I felt a deep calm and contentment. Leaving the place I felt a reluctance to enter the world of all that again.

I return to a retreat now and again but I don't think that I want to abondon the world altogether.

Eugene Terre'Blanche trial: black farmworker sentenced to life in prison for murder - video

A black farmworker is sentenced to life in prison for murdering South African white supremacist leader Eugene Terre'Blanche. Chris Mahlangu, 29, had pleaded guilty but argued that he acted in self defence. A second man, Patrick Ndlovu, has been acquitted of the murder but found guilty of housebreaking

Yup. Hence my use of "was".

Ah well, he's got a wee plot of land now all to himself.
Bit of a result all round maybe.

Not sympathy, empathy. I understand why they are the way they are. I don't condone it, in fact I abhor it.

I admire your capacity for compassion: :cool: I find it hard to have room for abhorance and empathy simultaneously. I never was vey good at multi-tasking. :think:
