I also suggest squirreling that information away so it can’t be found, other than by your immediate family. The communists will want to confiscate what you have hidden if they know about it.

America is on the verge of collapse. It is the only way to “Go Green”. You can’t bring the world up to our standard of living, so the Democrats will bring the US down to the rest of the worlds standards.

I've got the entire Summa Theologica. That covers a whole lot of ground related to Western Civilization.

Are the firemen going to go around burning books a la Fahrenheit 451?

Your country is already there, right?

On the same note, people should have a Bible hidden. Not someday, now, to be prepared. It will be banned as “hate literature” soon enough.

I’m moving to Wakanda.

I’d even suggest signing books out of your public libraries and “losing” them and giving the libraries the replacement costs for the books, just so you have a record of something.

Or you could buy a book at the bookstore.

Some will. But it ain’t gonna come to that. At least not here.

[lizma2]

What if we started to cheat better than they do?

Would they then start enforcing the law?

Separating this country into four entities would at least preserve some form of the Founders’ vision, but too mmmmm the populace seems content to let it all go under.

America is a dead man walking.

Where’s our Pinochet?!

Paperbackswap.com is where I got a lot of stuff. As people got rid of their textbooks and “decolonialized” their bookshelves I traded in my copies of Twilight and such.

You can probably still get a lot of good stuff there for the price of shipping out escapist fiction that you have already read.

It also takes upwards of 100 years to work socialism out of society.

In 100 years, we'll have settled Mars, and then, we can start all over in the U.S.M. (United States of Mars). ;)

But, seriously, the U.S. can start again, with a fewer states, just like the few states that started it all.

We can have the U.S. composed of all red states that want to continue the tradition of America, with the same constitution and bill-of-rights, and a voting system that starts and ends on the same day. We could start with Texas and Florida, and then perhaps Misissippi and Arkansas and Louisiana and Alabama/Oklahoma/Iowa/Utah/Tennessee?, and perhaps a few others.

The Republican Party leadership, apparently, thinks it’s more important to stop Trump than to keep the Democrats out of power...so yes, we will go full Communist.

[Cold Heart]

How about go and buy the book and not steal.

[ConservativeInPA]

I was thinking along the same lines earlier today. I’d include a narration of what freedom was like so my descendants had some idea of what is possible.

[FlyingEagle]

Completely agree although rather than “socialism”, it appears to be totalitarian Marxist communism in progress.
