Monday, October 25, 20105 Best Countries to Escape America's Decline Activist Post
Okay, you're upset with the direction America is headed and you've been thinking of moving to another country. Perhaps you feel exhaustively cynical about the political, economic, or social situation in the U.S. and think it is beyond repair. You wouldn't be alone. Many top economists and other trend forecasters are now openly predicting that a total economic, environmental, and social collapse may be imminent in America.

People have a hard time conceptualizing a situation where the US Dollar and US Treasuries have lost 75% of their purchasing power in a 24 month period.
Meaning today you’d need to get liquid assets of at least US $10 million out of the US, and have enough physical resources and local currency on top of that $10 million,
Less than 40,000 households in the US have that type of liquid wealth. And I dare say most of those households are the cause of the collapse, and are in the greatest position to benefit from the collapse.
Stand your ground. I’ve lived and worked in just about every Third World sink trap and expat paradise there is. When TSHTF for “the last best hope of mankind,” I choose to be in Texas. I wasn’t born here, but I got here as fast as I could, and I’ll make my stand here.
Don’t hold your breath on the Sandinistas completing a canal. The idea has been floating around since Cornelius Vanderbilt. Even he gave up on it.
“How? They PI Muslims don’t have the numbers. The Indonesians can’t walk there.”
In every place our forces have faced jihadiscum, the Indonesians provide a significant, if not majority, percent of the jihadiscum fighter pop.
They don’t “walk there” to those points and places either.
The south PI islands (Mindanao in particular) are already training grounds for jihadiscum from all over the Pac AO. The infrastructure for staging for swarm into the rest of the PI already exists.
With the collapse of the US, there’s no more USN to police and patrol the Pac AO. The various jihadiscum fighter pops (in particular the huge contingent from Indones) wont need sophisticated transport to migrate to the south PI islands.
Also forgotten, we do have, and have had, forces in the south PI fighting, or at least aiding the fight, against the local PI jihadiscum since things jumped off. Those will be gone too.
Once the leashes are off, and the big brother protector is no more, it’d be less than competent not to expect a rather dramatic increase in mulsim participation in the jihad to secure the remainder of the PI from local pop as well.
Nothing takes the moderate out of moderate muslims like the prospect of a win.
Once Obama is done with us, we'll be that socialist hellhole... without the architecture, location and museums.
Their legislature already approved it, and a Chinese company is going to build it. Not only will there be a canal, but also a fuel pipeline and rail line. Construction is set to being in 2015.
As was the case in Costa Rica, the Chinese will buy land to house their workers, and they will grow their own food (rice) and everything they need for the project.
Only if you’re willing to live in a fortress. The respect for law is very low in non-industrialized countries. The police are often corrupt and wouldn’t help you in a pinch. The natives will know you’re American and think you have a big stash.
Better to work to restore this country to its former greatness.
Lee County - named for Robert E. Lee. My son moved down with his family a year ago. There weren’t many full time jobs. Like every where else there are mostly part time jobs in the service industry. A lot of the work is seasonal (snowbird season - October to April). Hertz is moving their corporate headquarters from NJ to SW Florida. They expect it will bring in about 1,000 jobs. There are jobs for younger people down there but not high paying. Low costs housing and property taxes are where the big savings are. You can live relatively comfortably down there if you live simply and with no debt. Lots to do. Beautiful beaches and lots of amazing parks.
New Zealand sounds like an awesome place (once you get past horror stories of people killed by their National Health Service)
The Sandinista regime passed it in violation of the country’s constitution plus trampling the rights of the indigenous and other landowners. If the Sandinistas lose power, the whole project implodes.
Note that it isn’t the Chinese government backing this project. It is a pet project of an eccentric Chinese billionaire who can afford to lose his investment.
Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi might make a rather formidible nation, carved from the American remnant.
That last part would explain why expats get treated so well in nations like the Philippines. Once they realize Americans don’t have the stashes anymore, they won’t be looking to rob them blind anymore, but the expats will be treated just like ordinary citizens of those nations - and most of them will hardly find that an improvement over the US even after Obama is done.
That’s an argument for the European solution, isn’t it? sigh

If you go back and are interested in a cooler climate with quite a few US and other expats, check out Boquete and Volcan. The nearest big city is David.
I work with someone from Belize. She says the government is VERY corrupt.
So... Belize actually has someone patrolling its border... Cool concept.. I LIKE that idea!
When it comes to regaining the America we all once knew, Texas may well be the tip of the spear in a confederation of those states. Some may speak derisively about such as Arkansas or Louisiana. However, what once lay quietly sleeping out there, under the Kudzu, has awakened. And, it wants its country back.
And it wouldn’t be just those states either. Kentucky, Tennessee, North and South Carolina, Georgia, West Virginia and Indiana would likely join in.
