Apparently living off the grid, off the land and without government assistance is now a crime that can land you in jail and cause you to lose your home.
Government officials across the country are forming so called “nuisance abatement teams” to intimidate people into giving up their land or conforming to the governments demands and hooking back into the grid. Counties across the country are actually jailing people for living the way they want to live.
I was alerted to this video by a reader and was troubled and sickened by what the poor people in the California Desert are being forced to deal with. From being threatened with jail time if they don’t hook back into the grid to being thrown in jail because the county didn’t like the look of their homes, the people in the deserts of Los Angeles County are being terrorized by their government.

You know what I would like to see. Well I can't tell you. But if the government thugs ended up with a bullet in the head. I wouldn't cry in fact I would probably drink a beer and celebrate.
Have you ever seen the Seinfeld episode where Kramer tried to get rid of his mailbox?
I'd love to get rid of my mailbox. The only regular piece of mail that I need is my water bill. The water department is too stupid to accept internet payments. Everything else I regularly get is junk.

There's thousands of homes in California off the grid. In many places there's no other choice. PG and E does run California though so I can see them putting pressure on counties to get as many customers as possible.
