I understand where you're coming from.
You're in a much different position then I -- when the left starts knocking on my door, I don't have many options. You have options and right now helping your neighbor and teaching youth are absolutely paramount to rebuilding.
Well you still have options right now... I dunno what they are exactly, but I think if I was down your way, I would find me a place way back in the swamp. Even a pontoon boat would be a great start... maybe a motor home that can be outfitted and get you out of populated areas... I intend to shelter in place as I can - Until I can inhabit the property up the hill, it remains the same...
Castle first, and pay attention. When it looks like the castle is going to fall, load it all up in the truck and head for the hills. As soon as the cabin is done that will change, as even before I am living up there, my stores I have here will be up there already.
But even when there, I will have a cache off in the woods a day's hike or so... Castle is only good till it ain't, no matter were it is. That is just beat into me. I always have a way out... Maybe two. That's the only reason them options are there.
I agree. Beating your head against the wall trying to build upon something that has completely fallen apart is futile. It is much more logical to start fresh -- based upon the conservative principles upon which this country was founded and our Constitution.
I don't know how to get there, nor if it is even a possibility. It used to be nothing more was needed than a good solid handshake which used to represent one's integrity and a biding trusting agreement -- that just doesn't exist in many places anymore.
I could not agree more. The way to start is just as the TEA Party did. Don't worry about the fed... overturn counties and state houses and governorships. Ground up grass roots. And stick hard to principles. There ain't a dang person one that doesn't understand the checkbook. JUST on the checkbook, if you mean it, you'll get overwhelming support - Just like the TEA Party did.
We just can't keep spending this much money. Everybody knows it. And add to that the money they are spending in DC is where their power lies. Who doesn't agree with that? Finny ain't it, that even in Republican administrations, the one thing that never dries up is the money.
That is the primary angle. Shut off the spending. Shut OFF the spending. SHUT OFF THE FRIGGIN SPENDING.
