- Involuntarily:
  Since the rich get richer and the poor get poorer, an increasing number
  of people is being forced to "simple living" simply because they can't
  afford any other living.

- Voluntarily:
  Some folks are simply tired of mindless consumerism, the rat race and all
  the consequences, so they try to get back to real values.  (Motto: "The
  best things in life  aren't things.")

HTH,
