That's why my big-picture goal is to create arrays of decent sized (~10 acre) highly intensive off-grid greenhouse food production facilities, arranged in satellite fashion around communities, that can provide a complete and exceptionally healthy diet that is entirely produced within a few miles of where it is eaten. Virtually anything can be grown in this manner by tailoring the design of each greenhouse to naturally provide the specific environmental needs of whatever is being grown in it. This style of hyperlocalized food production would not only allow folks to have direct and constant access to healthier food (no need for GMO's in our pampered greenhouse environments, for example), we'd get far tastier food, since we'd grow the best tasting varieties rather than the best shipping varieties, and we'd pick them when they're ripe rather than when they'd ship the best.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 60192146 Why create that which you can steal?
Yours is mine.
Keep building.
I come for it soon.
Oh I'm well aware that there are many such folks. And not just the 'bad' people, either: almost all 'good' folks would also raid my family's property if their own kids were starving or dying from an improper diabetic diet. It's just a fact of life.
But rather than wage war on such folks, I decided that the better strategy would be to help everyone by creating the large-scale facilities that I mentioned in my last paragraph of the original post (I left it in the quote so you could see what I'm referring to).
The thinking is that by creating those large-scale systems, it eliminates the need to steal, since people will be able to just keep getting their food from there as usual. These big ~10acre facilities will be hardened and entirely off-grid, so they'll keep functioning through almost any calamity. And they'll be built all over everywhere, with the goal being that almost everybody would have access to a sufficient and constant supply of healthy, delicious, and nutritious real foods grown within 10 miles of where they live.
There's no reason for us serfs to make war with each other if we can just use our noggins to eliminate the problems before they arise. So I will indeed keep building toward that goal, because not only do I want my family to be well fed, I want you and yours to be well fed, too.
