I will not spend money on anything extra. I refuse to help the economy.
I will give only to my church and missions.
I will help my kids out rather than have my money sitting in the bank.
I will not support any companies that supported Obama.

As soon as the weather clears a bit, starting a small green house out of junk lumber we have around that is suitable. We have a few acres ..... chickens will be here in the spring ..... learning how to can fruits/vegetables/meat. My folks grew up on a farm and dad has been telling me about the Great Depression days so I have an idea what is coming. Those that are self-reliant & can take care of themselves will survive .... those that depend on the government, will not.

I wish you the best, but sadly, sheltering your money is only half of the equation. Not much we can do about the prices of necessities which are going to skyrocket.

Anything related to energy is going to skyrocket in price and decrease in availability. Everything from heating and cooling our homes to buying a loaf of bread is going to cost more and more.

I will quit my job and go on welfare or disability and food stamps.

I’ve been supporting freeloaders since I was 16 years old; now it’s my turn to get a piece of Obama’s stash.

Any “friends” that have leaned left or mushy moderates, and I have not been able to convince to vote conservatively, I will immediately dump. I’m sick and tired of dead weight.

I am currently in Chemo for stage 4 cancer. I take comfort in that I will most likely die before the Country does.

FYI, Chemo is more fun than it was to watch last night’s results.

Anything we do to put ourselves back in control of our lives will be helpful. There are a lot of ways to try starving the “zombies” but eventually you end up surrounded and embattled unless you address the problems creating the zombies.

The zombies today have been created over a period of at least a few generations. Liberals began their long march through our society from the ground up: through the school boards, the city and county government, the labor unions. The “taker zombies” have been created by the media, the entertainment industry, the “politically correct” churches, the social justice groups. The concept of shame has been erased—unless you dare judge someone else.

So while starving the money zombies is good and I think a good start, it is more important to attack the causes in addition to it is really only the symptom of a societal sickness. That plan of action should begin with looking at ourselves. To what extent do we look the other way as moral sickness spreads through our nation?

Do we wink at or even patronize morally degrading entertainment? Do we ignore the moral failings of an entertainer, an athlete, or artist so we can enjoy the CD, the concert, the movie, the game?

Do we ignore the propagandizing that goes on in our churches, our community organizations, our charities? Do we unheedingly give to charity without a clear idea of how the charity uses the money to help people become self-sufficient instead of dependent?

Do we concur with notions that people should not be expected to face the natural consequences of their voluntary decisions? Do we toss money at the corner begger just to make him or her go away or make ourselves feel self-righteous?

Do we leave our children in public schools where the previous generation of takers is busily creating the next generation of takers?

Do we look the other way at immoral behavior because we don’t want anyone judging us? Do we make a moral equivalence argument by believing that since we are not perfect, we don’t dare judge another?

Do we believe that shame is an outdated concept?

All of these and more need to be addressed before we can truly confront the zombie government. After all, the zombie government obviously reflects the will of the people.

By all means, shield your honest gain as much as legally possible but don’t assume you can hold the fort forever while zombie citizens multiply unchallenged by decent citizens who are willing to stand by their beliefs even at a steep cost to themselves. Until people are willing to say that morality and standards and self-sufficiency are good and right for the nation, and do what they can to demonstrate that by example, the zombies will increase and eventually besiege every redoubt.

These threads are all over the place this morning...we need to 'merge' all these great ideas into a single thread, and make that thread readily accessible.

Quit paying the salaries of the media, ESPECIALLY Fox News; by canceling your cable today. DISH, DIRECT, whatever. Nuke them all.

Make plans to move to a 'red state', ASAP.

Mitt Romney's record of having won just ONE election remains intact. Open primaries strike again...

We need to repent as a Nation and as individuals.

When you figure out how to shelter your finances please let us all know.

Even for people with pensions not funded by government confiscation there is no retirement without a vibrant economy.

They will tax your income, your investments and your property until you can’t afford it and then they will confiscate it for redistribution. Yes, the logical conclusion is that without buyers value will be destroyed but this does not matter to the proletariat in the short term. So long as the checks keep coming.

Start a home Bible Study on a weeknight.

Better to find an existing one and join in.

Barter. Go underground with your economic activity. Don’t get greedy, just do what you have to do to get by and stay under the radar.

I guess I’m the outlier here. I have lived by the book my whole life and worked since I was 10. I am now 61 and have decided to join the takers. All the young people in my family worship Obama( nieces and nephews, I have no kids), and support gay marriage, abortion etc.. So my intent is to get on every government dole I qualify for. If they want a socialist country and the ruination it brings then I will be more than happy to let them pay my way from now on. There is no America as I know it left anymore so why try to make believe otherwise. What we saw yesterday was a triumph of the welfare state and 40 years of public school indoctrination. We have become a third world banana republic. I hope the young people of America enjoy their descent into oblivion.
