On the one hand it is simplicity itself as prior to the existence of a State of the World Order people were alive, I would surmise and living joyful lives. Certainly my great grandparents were born into a world without electricity and if genealogy is any guide so were all their forebears as far back as the late 1700's.You must realize that it is not easy to get out of the state.
Life is not dependant on state governance or money/commerce despite appearances. We have to ignore the state as far as we are able and then some by realising we as individual living beings are the soul/sole source of truth and the only things that can define do no harm and live accordingly.
Worrying about the degree of difficulty just shows how completely we appear to have been separated from our self.
