Your listing and description of your choices is a great comfort to me. I, too, have made decisions that are, perhaps, the strongest way I can be actively protesting the culture being forced upon us.

One of my favorite alternatives to participating in the market economy is my local Buy Nothing group. I stumbled upon it on Facebook and I have truly never encountered such a kind and generous group. The motto is "we give from our abundance" and truly, these folx live out that motto. The idea is that nothing goes to a landfill, and no money is used in our exchanges. I highly recommend to anyone in need of, well, stuff, as well as people who want to connect with their neighbors in a way that actually creates a community.
