Leave big cities, buy a big house with a big garden near to the sea. You can get your fish, vegetables, fruits for free. Stop being big companies' bitch. You don't have to smoke marlboro, grow your own weed. As long as your the only one who's smoking, nobody would know it.
If you can't take the risks, then stop crying and keep sucking.
This is still possible in my third world country. Buy a plot of land in the province, set up a farm, and raise livestock. If you're not doing it on a commercial scale, the gov't wouldn't bother you. Besides, they're not keen on going after taxes anyway. Many folks in province has never paid income tax. Just make sure to have enough water stored for the dry season and you're good to go. And oh, that the land wouldn't wash away during the monsoon. Other than that it's fine. Almost anything grow here.
I seen a vids on Youtube about microhouses (in particular the series by Seeker) and what I've read from the comments was a bit disturbing. It seems the gov't there in America is trying to shit on people who decided they've had enough of urban life and just want to live peacefully in their own land. You know they're up to something when they slap you with so much regulation for something you'd be doing while camping anyway.
