I like free pie. I’m going to have some free pie in about 20 minutes.
I’d say let them have a big upside down U shape, the east and west coasts and across the north.
Just leave the rest of us alone.
I can see the tax rebellion part as more people can't afford property taxes to pay for socialist indoctrination facilities (public schools). THIS issue will win us more GOP governorships than any other issue.
Food riots? Well, drive through knuckle dragger flyover country and understand how much arable land we have.
Revolution? I'd rather just succeed from the Union and form a new country that honors the original constitution (minus the slavery part).
Google food shortage and see that food riots occured around the world last year for reasons we are now not immune to, including lack of credit for farm inputs.
With the enforced use of corn and similar products to make ethanol because the Obamament will not allow us to drill here, drill now, the cost of food will rise astronomically. Corn will become car fuel and thus no more corn fed beef, chickens, hogs, corn flakes, corn syrup for sweetners, grits, hominy, corn bread and etc.........
Reality is about to test your theory. The money producing states have been hit hard. Tax revenues will be down at all levels, so they’ll be less for poor states.That is to say, states like NY, CA and CT will no longer be supporting states like Arkansas, Alabama and Mississippi.
>> Everything I read in this article is very possible though.
I take predictions of “revolution” no more seriously now than I did when they came from the wacko leftists after Bush’s election, or Ron Paul brigade more recently.
The extreme wing of the losing party almost always wishes they could forcefully overturn an election in which they performed poorly. They never do.

It really torqed me the other night when I came to the realization that
if the left wanted to secede wed gladly let them go and form their own little dystopia.
But if we wanted to escape their policies and live free of their control, theyd damn sure use deadly force to keep us from doing it.
I want to believe that we’re on a better patch than this, but with what’s happening in the financial markets it looks like it’s coming down around our ears.
Those of us who believe in self reliance will have an opportunity to demonstrate why we have chosen this as our personal philosophy. I think most conservatives will do fine.
"Huh??? I wasnt aware you could possess bricks of gold."
I dare say possession isn't the problem.
It's the carrying them around when she's on the lamb from marauders that's going to kill that wonder girl.
Most of it is ordinary, off the shelf items.
Rice. Beans. Various kinds of Pasta Ronis. Egg Noodles. You know those packs you see of gravy mix? Brown Gravy, Turkey Gravy, Country Gravy, etc.
Powdered milk. Powdered mashed potatoes. Large containers of whole black pepper corns.
Beef bullion. Chicken bullion. Cans of stock.
Tomato paste. Tomato sauce. Various canned spaghetti sauces.
Corn starch. Oatmeal. Whole coffee beans. 20+ lbs of dried, powdered whole eggs. Whole honey. Sugar. Flour.
Large collection of canned veggies.
Just stuff!!
I'd note that about 500,000 of your fellow Kansans voted for Barrack Obama. What would you do with them? Or what about the 4.5 million or so Californians who voted GOP in this last election?
Maybe BO should start worrying about how he’s going to start “spreading the food around.”
