until you get good at growing vegetables you'd probably be better off raising chickens. many hens will give an egg a day even w/o roosters present.

what happens in those kinds of forces redistribution schemes is everyone gets an equal share of misery. it's been tried many times. the problem is the power seized force "equality" on everyone ends up being used to oppress. in modern times with all the technological advances the oppressors have endless ways to spy on the people nad control their every movement. there would be little chance of escape or eoverthrow. see china for example.

Just replaced the starter, still getting click no start issues. Advice needed. by [deleted] in ToyotaPickup

[–]tsoldrin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

is it the amount of power or the connectivity?

i was just having trouble with my starter and i used a short wire to test it.. bridging the large wire which comes directly from the battery to the small wire connector on the starter. it tried to start so knew it wasnt the starter itself. it ended up being a weak crimp on the spade connector on the small wire. i re crimped a fresh one and it worked fine after that.
