Hmmm, yes I am not sure how these Freemen can justify getting goods and services unless they live on a commune and help in the production of goods. Otherwise they would have no excuse for stealing that Slurpee, they know that 7-11 operates under the laws of the land and clearly but attempting to take something from there you have to play by their rules. The Hutterites can do it, I'm sure the Freemen can too. But I don't know what the Freeman view on contracts (i.e. exchanging one thing of value for another thing of value) is.
