Two thoughts on this meme - self-reliance is necessary, and self-reliance is not sufficient, because if capitalism destroys the climate your homestead goes with it.

Self-reliance is a skill that everyone should have, but it should no longer be a necessity. If we can bail out corporations to the tune of trillions, then we should be able to ensure the welfare of all citizens, not just the 1%.
We don't make those decisions, the corporations that get bailed out do. That's why we have people dying in the gutter while the wealthy circumnavigate the globe in their private jet.

Most people won't even be able to get to where the wealthy are. They live in modern castles, complete with massive walls, guards, and isolated from everyone else
