Just as environmental degradation is a side effect of market capitalism, protecting our health, happiness and resources is a side effect of pursuing profit Deliberately.Sometimes the truth will make you angry. Deliberate Economics provides a capitalist's critique of capitalism, by describing the economy from the perspective of workers as if they were businesses pursuing profit. Few consider that homesteading could be easier and more profitable than trying to get by with a job today. Engaging and sometimes witty, Dr. Zieba reveals the economics of a 12 year life experiment to demonstrate an alternative to working full-time which may undo the environmental damage perpetrated by our market at the same time. Growing vegetables becomes the most effective form of political protest imaginable, and 'a path to freedom from wage slavery'.
