I did not interpret the point you responded to the same way as you. It's not about that individual's choice, but about the necessity for some person to be producing those products under those working conditions, in order for the off-grid folks to be able to consume them.
For some people, there's an implicit hypocrisy in visibly "opting-out" of a lifestyle if your new lifestyle necessitates that others have to fill in behind you. For others, yourself included I guess, it's just a market and anything goes.
Why do you assume those are the only working conditions possible?
>your new lifestyle necessitates that others have to fill in behind you
My lifestyle doesn't "necessitate" anyone to do anything. I buy solar panels because they are available and I can afford them. If all of a sudden nobody wanted to work more than 10 hours a week and solar panels were not available or too expensive, I would not buy them.
What each individual does with their time is up to them. When the world changes because of how people spend their time (i.e. stuff might get way cheaper, or way more expensive, or self-driving cars may or may not become a thing), I, and everyone else, will continue to re-evaluate their choices about how they spend their time, and adjust accordingly.
Capitalism says that if a person wants to work 100+ hours a week and drive a Porsche, they can.
If another person only wants to work 10 hours a week and walk everywhere, they can.
Simply because Porsche sell $200K+ cars, does not mean I'm obligated to work enough to pay for that.
>have to be made by someone doing a 9-5 job somewhere
Actually, the person making those things could also have chosen to live a simpler life and only be working part time. It's their choice.
