    People who are truly free are probably happy, and would have no need for man made laws. Laws are an attack against freedom, equality and compassion for all is the only thing needed to live in peace.

      “If Men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and the next place, oblige it to control itself.”

      I would just suggest a good 6 months watching it all from the sidelines, and not running around keeping up with the joneses, or trying to make ends meet (unfortunately I think a lot of people are going to have that forced upon them, but if you can do it willingly without stress, that would be ideal)
