> None of my electronic gizmos would work in NZ.

All of them will, with a standard step-up transformer. However, you would find that we get better electronic gizmos here in NZ sooner than you do.

And our DVD zoning system is such that we can play any DVD we like, from anywhere in the world.

> I think that you may have to prepare for a swelling of the Paheha population if the merde hits the fan here in the US.

(grin!) Problem is, the sort of person who would cut-and-run on his country is precisely the sort of person who wouldn’t make it here.

This is the Edge of the World, literally. You either make it here, or there is nowhere else left.

Real Americans never cut-and-run: we all know that about you lot. Alamo and all that. So if we find “Americans” who have fled their own country because things have gotten too hot, we know that they are, at best, second-quality Americans. Why would we want such people as immigrants?

Rush Limbaugh? We have our own opinionated radio talk show hosts, with their own mega-egos. Does he have any other job skills?

Stay right here.
Obamunism can’t last long (biting the hand that feeds is self-destructive), and I won’t let a few twits drive me out.

Let’s review: what, pray tell, is truly the problem? Short of a few small legal & jurisdictional areas which you really aren’t that interested in, you can say what you want, own what you want, function independent of the system at large, and have some 6,000,000 square miles of varied terrain to choose from. Pay your way in cash, leverage incorporation and contracting, own things of inherent value, and on the whole you can check out of the system the Obama et al seek to control to their own demise. Yea, there’s lots to complain about, but what REALLY is the problem?

We act like we can just emigrate. Most counties will not take immigrants and if one moves one needs lots of monies. Several million to move to Switzerland. Same for New Zeland. There really doesnt seem to be a place to go.

Switzerland....guns legal and everyone’s money is there. You got leverage.

Yeah, and two steaks at the supermarket will cost you $70. Some friends of mine are doing a couple of years there for a pharmaceutical company and can't wait to get back. They said, "Imagine a country where everyone went to high school together. And all their parents went to high school together. And all their grandparents went to high school together. You're always going to be an outsider."

We do. Two-phase. They come in all shapes and sizes, cheap nasty ones at the airport cost about $20 and will run your razor, with more expensive ones being recommended if you value your electronic gizmo.

For North American ex-Pats (like me) you can get a fairly chunky step-down transformer for about $200 at “Dick Smith” (like “Radio Shack”, only Australian). 220 volts in, 110 volts out. It will take a decent sized power bar and provide clean power to several gizmos at once.

I ran with one of these for about 4 years, until my electronic stuff wore out and needed replacing. Now I have two of these transformers in my basement, with nothing for them to power — much like most immigrants from the US/Canada do!

Some of your gizmos — computers and electric razors are often like this — have a switchable power supply built-in. And some of them have their power supplies automatically switch, depending on what your voltage input is. Apple computers used to do this: I dunno if they still do.

I’m not going anywhere....willingly. I prefer to stay here in Texas and be the most annoying, painful thorn in the side of the commie bastards as possible for as long as possible.

Thanks for the correction, glad it wasn't the way I remembered it. NZ is the most beautiful and the most varied place I have ever seen and we went pretty much all over it. Any kind of scenery you want to see is only a few miles away. Snow covered mountains, beaches, rocky shores, thick jungle, grass covered hills, lakes, rushing rivers or desert mountains, NZ has them all.

Re: “Yep, when it comes to the big cities here in Texas, you might as well be in San Francisco.”

Well, if WE show up in those big cities in Texas in big enough numbers, perhaps THEY will choose to leave for more friendly spots like San Fran, Portland, L.A. and the rest o the lib havens...

How many fried foods / stuff on a stick did you try?

It’s traditional to try as many as possible.
