Before you go into a fetal position in despair, ponder how an IED and a Crown Vic or up-armored Suburban will interact. These skin-headed, bloused booted bozos are out of their league.
Ok, I've pondered. There are a quiet but steady dropping of hints coming from various government agencies and other agencies like the IMF that they are going to implement schemes to have the private sector pay off the debts they have incurred. Things mentioned have been to confiscate 401ks, corercive investments in government bonds, new real estate taxes, forcing insurance companies and pension funds to invest in bonds, an exit tax on selling bonds, and the unilateral extension of the bond's maturities, and an 80% tax rate with no deductions. They will not debate these openly, they will just vote on them one Friday at midnight, and the next Monday poof, your money has been taken.
Now when that happens, who am I supposed to IED? The money will be gone already, in a puff of electronic transfers. Yes, there will be violence coming up, but only after everyone has been impoverished and it is too late to do anything about it except to fight over scraps. I am trying to find a safe haven for my money now, not learn how to build bombs in my basement, because fining a way to keep what I have safe is a better use of my time.
