Where’s the link to the Fox News article?

Bring it on, it’s way overdue.
‘takers’ = moochers and looters (those with political connections, like Uncle Warren Buffet)
A prediction I made on another FP article after the election last night:
Texas will float a trial balloon dealing with succession from the US and will find a significant number of states in agreement with them. This will result in either a new political block that neither DC republicans nor democrats know how to deal with or start in motion the actual succession of states from the US. Maker states, like farming country et al, tired of supporting taker states like Ca, NY, NJ, Mass, Il. If succession becomes a viable option Eastern Washington, Eastern Ca., SW Illinois and Northern Fla will try to break away from the taker socialist parts of their states.
A Crypto-Communist twice-elected to highest office: That’s the way the country crumbles.
Well, now we know which side won at “Gettysberg”.
I’m so sick and tired about seeing this bullshit about a comng civil war? It isn’t going to happen.
I am old and somewhat grey but, where do I sign up?
Who is John Galt?
What’s sad is only 3 states determined the outcome of this horrible election. My vote in California really didn’t count.
Looking at the numbers for Karl Rove’s 3-2-1 strategy, Romney actually won the popular vote by 29,000 in those 6 states but the distribution of votes changed the electorial college results.
(disclaimer: not an endorsement of Rove)
Remember in the Obama 2016 movie the assertion that Bronco’s desire was to get revenge and to make us feel the pain of the third world countries? Well, the cities of this country represent the modern “USA” cool people, sleek venues, penthouse apartments, etc. and the rural areas are sort of like the third world to those cities in that they plunder the resources, make fun of “backward ways” and want the bitter clingers to show up only when there is real work, dirt on the hands style to be done, people to be rescued, oil to be pumped, etc. Otherwise, rural areas are a joke to them. So, in some ways, “mission accomplished.”
I have been predicting this today, and it would not surprise me if this happens.
One way to win this whole thing would be for the workers to all quit and starve the governments ass to death for lack of tax money. Sure it would be tough but most of us could survive. I mean if we all refuse to work what can they do? Nothing. If we don’t work the tax well runs dry overnight..” The beggars would get nothing from their slavemasters because they would have nothing to give. If everyone would just go Galt....
I predict that at some point over the next 4 years the internet will come under Obama’s strict control. He will throttle access to conservative sites like Freerepublic while leaving liberal sites untouched. I mean he is free now and he wants revenge, said so himself. If things get tight I would suggest having several means of communication. Conservatives are going to be stomped on for the next 4 years. Get ready.
Oh, please. Stop with the civil war nonsense. Do you really expect people to support violence. Great way to attract new people to our party.
"The obvious deductions, which may be, and indeed have been drawn, from considering the Constitution as a Compact between the States, are, that it operates as a mere treaty, or convention between them, and has an obligatory force upon each State no longer than it suits its pleasure, or its consent continues;, that each State has a right to judge for itself in relation to the nature, extent, and obligations of the instrument, without being at all bound by the interpretation of the Federal Government, or by that of any other State; and that each retains the power to withdraw from the Confederacy, and to dissolve the connection, when such shall be its choice; and may suspend the operations of the Federal Government, and nullify its acts within its own territorial limits, whenever, in its own opinion, the exigency of the case may require. These conclusions may not always be avowed; but they flow naturally from the doctrines which we have under consideration. They go to the extent of reducing the Government to a mere Confederacy during pleasure; and of thus presenting the extraordinary spectacle of a nation existing only at the will of each of its constituent parts."

We really just need to be able to refuse to pay taxes. We can call it “freedom fighting” and “civil disobedience” like the supporters of illegal aliens do. Are there jury trials for income tax evasion? If so, jury nullification would work.
