Episode Description from the Publisher

I am a criminal. Moreover, I'm an international criminal.To survive, to be able to live on a small amount I have with the conditions I have:- I steal power from the sun, which apparently is the property of the electric company.- I steal water from the mountains, which is once again the property of the water company.- I live on land that is publicly owned, free.- I grow my own medicines. And all of this is illegal.All of this is not allowed any more.With my solar panels, I'm supposed to pay a fee for that power; with the water I'm supposed to pay for what I use; with the rubbish, even though I create very little because I compost almost everything, don't actually dump it in anywhere since I reuse everything, I'm supposed to pay for those services. But the one that I had to work on all weekend that truly bothers me is for my health.My leg and my back are conditions that I created. My colon and my intestines are conditions that the medical profession created.
