There is no dishonour
There is no dishonour in taking what is needed for life.

There is no dishonour in taking what is needed for life.
Because life itself, the very act of being alive, gives you no other practical choice.
And we all actually know this, deep down.
That's why so many people can see "Freemanship" as "right", even before they have a clue how it works. In fact it takes a seriously ingrained mind not to understand what I'm about to say. There is only one species on this planet that thinks 'giving' is something special, and that's Homo Sapiens.
But they are completely wrong. Because they have never thought about it.
When we arrive here, what's the first thing we do? Most people say "Scream!". No way! We take a breath, before we can scream. In point of fact, from birth to death, we take everything.
We take the air we breathe. We take the rain that falls from the sky. We take the light that comes from the Sun. We take the heat that comes from the Sun. We take minerals out of the ground. We take energy from natural resources, the flow of water, the wind, etc. We take animals that have taken food for themselves. We take plants that have fed themselves on water and minerals taken from the ground and light and heat taken from the Sun.
We take ... because there is no other way. (Animals know this by instinct. Plants just 'do it')
Organic Life = Take. Because there is no other way. (Think about it)
There is no dishonour in taking. Because there is no other way.
What do we consider giving back? Does the sky want the rain back? Does the Sun want the light and heat back? Does the ground want the minerals back?
No ... and a jolly good job too!
Because what do we give then? What can we give? Waste. Sewage. Pollution.
Can you think of anything else?
Dishonour comes with taking land and/or resources, and expecting others to 'pay for the privilege of access to them'. That's where dishonour comes from.
Barging one's way to the front of the Takers. Elbowing out (by Statute?) anyone who has the audacity so say: "Hold on a minute! What
gives you the right to elbow your way to the front of the queue?"
Yes ... as ever ... you just need to think about it.
Scroungers? Actually they have more morality than most. They actually have the decency to ask for permission, and generally to say Thanks."Got a fag, mate?" ... "Yes ... OK ... have one" ... "Thanks, mate!"
The dishonour of grabbing as much as one can has been around since the dawn of Cro-Magnon Man. And we are living under the vestiges of that. Breaking out of that insidious mould is what Freemanship is all about.
And, deep down, everyone knows that. Most just don't know how to express or communicate it in words.
We are not "tax dodgers" and "demand dodgers". Those who attempt impose "taxes" and "demands" based on what they took freely in the first place are those who are in dishonour. Honour comes from standing up to them.
