This Man Believes Food Should Be Free For All & Is Leading The Way To Make It Possible

Do you ever question why we have to pay to live and essentially survive on this planet? Grow Free is changing the paradigms in regards to what society has implied we accept and not question.

In order to survive on this planet, human beings need 3 basic things; air, food, and water. If someone were to start charging us for the air we breathe, we would think that they were absolutely crazy, but paying for food daily we don’t even think twice. Why is it that we have to pay for what is produced naturally by our Mother Earth? Why is it that human beings are the only species who have to pay to eat and pay for shelter? Have you ever asked yourself those fundamental questions?

In his TedX Talk, Andrew Barker, Growtester and author for Collective Evolution, raises these questions and more, as he shares his message about what him and his group, Grow Free, are aiming to achieve. Their goal? Simple. To give away for FREE any extra food that they are growing in their own personal gardens. Giving away food for free might sound crazy to some as our minds are so conditioned to be in constant survival mode, someone had to work hard to grow that food, if it’s given away for free, how will they ever be repaid for their hard work? We might think that when there is an abundance of food grown, it goes to waste. How crazy is it that there are people who are starving and we have millions of tons of food being thrown in the garbage every year?

1 humanoid works & produces food, another 1 eat for free & get fat !?.

I don’t ever ask or want anything for free.Ill pay my way the whole way.someone is putting in the time and money to grow it so I shouldn’t get it for free.i know I’m not working for free.Just my .02.

Air isn’t owned or made by anyone and they can’t control that.Food is made by people so needs to be paid for or else those who make/grow it won’t want to make/grow it anymore.

World wide hunger is a VERY complicated problem. Anytime someone comes up with a simple solution to a complicated problem....it means the solution is WRONG.

You can't produce food for free/  

[pellius]

When someone says that something that needs to be produced should be free they really mean is that other people should have to work for them for free. Nothing is free. Someone is paying for it. Either with their cash or their labor.

I always find it ironic that people who demand that they have a right to free stuff don't do or give anybody shit for anything.

There's a difference between the right to have health care provided for you by someone else and having the right to obtain (buy) health care for yourself.

Same for education or anything else that the Democrats/Liberals say should be provided "for free".

It's easy to appear compassionate and generous when it comes to spending other people's money.

There is no shortage of food on Earth anywhere. However there are corrupt governments that withhold food from their citizens.

The last 2 things you said are the most true things ever said.great whole post but the last two just really say something.

Decades ago, my cousin biked to Cannon Beach, OR where she planned to live for the summer. All she took for food was brown rice. She survived the entire summer by tending peoples' gardens in exchange for free vegetables. She set up camp at Hug Point, which is just south of Cannon Beach.

She passed that winter from malnutrition and exposure..

  Not exactly. My cousin is alive and well. She stills rides her bike and works out at a local gym where she and her husband live in Maine. She is one of the healthiest 68 year old people I know. In the winter she and her husband live in the Florida Key's on their schooner.

Known a few people to do this - work just enough to keep in shape and neutralize the outgo of living this way. Before Belize this was the in lifestyle to have for Easterners.

Great post especially about people demanding free stuff while they themselves never doing or giving shit to anyone.  These are the same people demanding $15 minimum wages.

Yes it is "the life of Riley". Both my cousin and her husband are retired and while not rich, they are well enough off to do pretty much whatever they want.

Yep great post..

Food can be free for that twink, looks like he nibbles on raw grape-nuts and few celery sticks for his daily intake.
25 cents a day in food costs.

[pellius]

Not necessarily withholding food but policies that stifle production. But government corruption is the cause. Think of countries that were once prosperous that are now poor like Cuba, Lebanon, and Venezuela. Africa should be a bread basket but is just one big shit hole.

She got paid in vegetables for working, dummy. If she didn't tend the gardens there would be no "free" vegetables. It's just like saying she tended people's gardens in exchange for free money.

And we are called selfish because we want to keep more of our money but the government is never called greedy because they want to confiscate more of it. I don't care if you are rich or poor, why is it better that the government gets so much of your money? Whose money is it? Does anybody really think that the government spends your money better than the people who actually had to earn it? There is always an inherent waste with the government. That's why you should want limited government.

So as pellius said, she got paid.  That's called "capitalism".  Thanks for making a post supporting it.

PS - this is why I wanted FART SPRAY to be sprayed at your union meeting.  Leftists deserve to be gassed.

Children should not have to pay for food at school. There should also be something set up for summertime so that children who are from poor families can be fed. But grown ass adults should have to work for food if they are able bodied.

[funk51]

food is always free , you just have to know where to go to find it.

If they have parents that can work then they should have to pay.If you are to poor to support your kids you should not have any.its a jungle out there and only the strong shall survive.

Don't bring in Turd World shitizens to your Civilized Nation. Life isn't fair and while it's not their "fault" they were born with shitty DNA, it's not the responsibility of the civilized to take care of them.

You want to "help" them?  Move there and see what happens to you and anyone and everything you bring along.  It won't be pleasant.

This thread is so stupid, I thought Primemuscle posted it.
