Anyone can build off-grid if they want to, as long as they purchase their land and pay property tax. OP admitted to being mostly libertarian, so I think they're really just complaining about taxes. I personally think libertarianism is a slippery slope to anarchism, because taxes are what pay for roads, police, firefighters, etc.
No one ever gets my points. No one can build off grid if they want to because they have to buy the land. It was never like that if we were to go back to the U.S. in the late 1700s.
Property tax and income tax I'm against. But I said that I do believe in governance at the local level, and as long as it's constitutional. So taxes on gas for instance to pave the roads is sorta ok in my book.
