Guide to Opting Out of the Economy in 2025 To be used as a form of political protest, environmental consciousness, control over your finances or all of the above. Why? Political: it's been made clear over and over again that money, not people, is the most important thing to the leaders of this country. So hit 'em in the only place that hurts: revenue. Environmental: people consume 400% more clothing today than 20 years ago. The labor exploitation and pollution created to sustain this level of purchasing has devastating effects. Finances: this one is self-explanatory, right? Fight rising costs by finding alternative ways to get the things we need. The easiest way to consume less is to make consuming less convenient. GeneralTips Shop local. When you need to buy something, buy from a local business. Your purchase will directly support the local economy without lining the pockets of billionaire CEO's. Pay with cash. Credit card processors charge around 3% per transaction. They make a lot of money doing very little and can contribute to higher costs to cover these fees on the merchant side. Cancel subscriptions. Amazon Prime is the big one, cancel it. Take stock of your streaming services and auto-fill subscriptions and only keep what you absolutely need. One in, one out. Don't buy more of a thing until you're out of it (or nearly out): cosmetics, household cleaners, etc. Good, ol' castile soap can clean most things around the house, no need to buy 17 different products! More Tips Utilize your local library. You don't need to purchase every book you want to read and many have wonderful free community programs. Omaha's has a seed library you can "check out" (no need to check back in) free vegetable and flower seeds for your garden donated by local gardeners! Buy Nothing groups. This is the only reason I still use Facebook: to participate in my neighborhood's Buy Nothing group. No money exchange, just kind folks giving away things they no longer need to someone else who does. Barter. Don't underestimate the power of trade! Quality over quantity. Focus necessary spending on items that are reusable (silicone Ziplocs over plastic), repairable (things that you'd be able to fix instead of replace should they break), and quality items in general. They'll cost more initially but will last you for years and years to come.
