MY cultural dissidence!
11-7-12 | Me

Posted on 11/07/2012 4:42:42 AM PST by SMARTY

In protest:

• I will NOT be spending any money which I absolutely DO NOT have to. Let this ass hat turn the economy around WITHOUT MY money and largesse

• I have no confidence in him or his abilities, so I will sit on any plans I had to make large and unnecessary expenditures… Example: No remodeling in the kitchen, etc.

• I will be the turtle who is going to crawl into my shell and wait out the storm.

• I will carry on and increase, if possible, my ‘cultural dissidence’ by withholding MY disposable dollars… I will NOT subsidize ANY Hollywood or media product (NO movies, NO magazines, etc), I will not patronize ANY organization or business which supports this adm!

Maybe this will work, because I am not optimistic about the Conservative leadership in Congress, up to this point.

I feel that they tolerated TOO much from Liberals and especially they tolerated way TOO much from this President.

I feel betrayed, abandoned and on my own. What other suggestions do you have?

I am also boycotting Ohio, those back stabbing sobs.

You’re right. It’s time to just hunker down. Time to keep your own. I don’t feel like I can even trust the bank... (I should I have ever?). I mean, things are hard enough as it is for my family right now, but I have to make even harder choices. I have never felt so adrift in my life, and I’ve been homeless and jobless.

I don’t really have a choice but to do this.

I’m in Ohio,and trust me when I say that in the rural areas we voted solid Romney.The sewers of Cleveland,Columbus,and Cincinnati just killed us.
Now Obastard will begin the process of rewarding his friends and punishing his enemies.Get ready for an interesting life.

I like the idea of doing without entertainment fluff but you should invest in yourself as much as you can. Don’t be a martyr for the cause because we need everyone to be 100% shape to get through this

I will pay as little tax as possible that enables freeloaders. Hunker down. Watch the 401k and IRA’s very closely. Help your family members who will lose jobs with the huge cuts coming in January.

SMARTY: You’re right! Look what Congress has let slip by. We can expect more of the same: such as a cascade of “Executive Orders”

We lie in SC. We were going to spend $150,000 of our savings to build a cabin in VA. That plan is effectively scrapped. Too risky to spend money now since he will continue printing it until its worthless.

Sorry, VA. You made your choice.

Dittos. Cancel newspapers, magazines, cable tv, in particular.

We will never buy another vehicle made by the UAW. Hyundais are better and less expensive anyway.

Starve the beast. The more you spend, the better off Oboma and his minions will be. The freeloaders, who receive $60,000 per year worth of benefits per welfare "family", will only get more.

Get yourself out of debt. Use your money on YOU. During the last great depression, those who had no debt were fine. Those who had debt lost everything.

You don't need to buy any more junk. Pay off your debts, or you'll always be captive to your debtor.

We cancelled cable three months ago. I refuse to support the MSM and Hollywood with $1,000/year (and we’re not poor; we have One million in savings and a combined retirement of over $100,00/year).I just am not going to support those who contribute to our undoing.

(And we have learned that you CAN get by without TV)

Boycott ALL ‘blue state’ products wherever possible. Your post sums it up nicely...decent people should get their children out of public schools, as well. That’s where liberals are created...

Amen to that. I proudly boycott UAW made vehicles and thanks to factories in Kentucky and Tennessee it’s an easy choice to make.
