It's time for states that still have common sense leaders to rid themselves of the enormous and unconstitutional federal government. We are collapsing regardless, but lets do it on our own terms instead of waiting for it to catch many individuals and states unprepared even though everyone can see it coming.
We can't keep lying to ourselves and thinking we will be able to solve our problems in the broken system we have. We also can't survive Obama for another term, and we will end up worse off if we just sat idly by as we collapse.
Your “salvage” idea sounds good. We’re in a southern red state; in fact, a huge chunk of the country is made up of red states. We do need to cooperate and share with each other as much as possible (barter, etc.) Know any websites?
