Mr. Suelo is certainly free to pursue his own happiness in whatever way he wishes to. But his personal decisions do not provide a compelling template for changes to any significant fraction of the population. We can't all -- we can't even 1% of us -- live in caves and eat roadkill. Heck, my wife and I can't do that if we want to have our daughter and not face, say, greater than 10% risk that my wife will die in the process. And the rest of what he's saying seems to be, "Just treat each other like you would family; do things for no reward and take what you need." That's not a novel approach. It doesn't scale up well. The major experiments with trying to scale it up resulted in the deaths of tens or hundreds of millions of people in the 20th Century.
