That sounds lovely except two things. No electric and outhouses. I don't do those things!
I am actually thankful for the times I was dirt poor because I was forced to learn skills I never would have otherwise. I might still be floating around in that "other" world. I certainly value what I have more and waste less because I know how hard it was to come by. I don't throw food out, it all goes to one of the animals after I've gotten a few human meals out of it.
As for disagreement... I think it helps you learn and stretch out of your comfort zone when someone says something you may not agree with. I get along with a lot of people who have wildly different views than me. It works out great. IF we are all decent to each other.
