To rely on something is to depend on it. If you are self-reliant, you rely on yourself. This can be a good thing if you are independent and take care of yourself. It can be a bad thing if you refuse to ask for help when you really need it.
Can I get a government grant to improve my farm soI can be more green and selfreliant? Can Iget a government grant to improve my farm so I can be more green and self-reliant?
The same reason you were too lazy to think of the answer to this yourself. Many animals conserve their energy by doing minimal work. This would be a shrewed tactic if food resources were scarce and movement would waste valuble calories. The genes which promote this energy conservative behaviour would be passed on the the next generation and thus a greater proportion of the nect generation would have these genes. Hence we have a human population which is rich in energy conservation genes, or lazy genes as you put it. Why are you so judgmental?

No, but sometimes "average" means "mean" - when it doesn't mean median, geometric mean, or something else entirely.
He is as mean as a copperhead snakeHe is as mean as an angry bearHe is as mean as a bottle of brandyHe is as mean a black woman
Present - I mean, She means. Future - I will mean, She will mean. Past - Meant.
