I'm still waiting on a UBI to fund my revolutionary activities. Haha.

Seriously though, you have to make certain sacrifices. Learn to live cheaply. I worked in IT 40 to 60 hours a week. Absolutely miserable, but the pay was good. I left that job and started a market garden/farm with a friend. I do that during the day and at night I work 20 hrs a week dispatching for a mom and pop restaurant delivery service that respects me and my politics though theyre silly liberals. I still find time to do food not bombs and other things every now and then, plus donate my overages to them. I would like to do more, like a guerrilla Cafe/restaurant weekly, best community building direct action tactic I've ever been part of in the past. Bartering and scavengimg goes a long way as well. Half of our veggies from the farm are traded for everything from booze to labor to massages, which every farmer knows the value of a good massage.
