There's a point of view that says it's easier to 'control' finances while you're married then when you're divorced.

One possibly good outcome is she has no access to your finances and you stay married. That way no court orders you to do anything.

Definitely recommend spend $1k with a divorce attorney to see your options.

If she'd be on the streets, that's her choice. Give her an ultimatum and let her live with the consequences.

That's what my current goal is, granted I haven't spoken to a lawyer yet which I will now. I truly believe she will never go through a court or even try to get a divorce. She doesn't "believe" in legal matters.

Thanks for the advice. Going to seek those options.

From what you’ve described, she’s easily impressionable. I suspect her hippie commune followers will encourage her and sway her opinion to go see a lawyer. Especially when you cut off financial support.
