I almost bought one of these weed wrenches last summer after my oldest daughter raved about them for serious landscape work after interning in a botanical garden and of course I put it off pinching my pennies. Then recently thought I'd get one for myself as a Christmas gift only to discover the man who makes them is "opting out" of the economy. I respect him immensely but I still need to get a weed wrench.

We did May 1st.
That tool looks like a very, very heavy-duty of a weed puller that I have. It works GREAT! If that man’s does as well, you would have loved it.
We need something like that but just use a chainsaw. LOL

I think the next “big” group to “quit” will be scores of doctors.

That looks something like it. My daughter brought it home on loan with a hori hori knife and an A.M.Leonard triple blade hand saw that took down saplings - we cleared 25 years of growth in the front of the property.

The truth is, without our money, this government has nothing.

To someone who gets up around five AM and drives almost an hour to work, Galting is very enticing. Living among the Amish is close enough for me at this point in time but I have been referencing Germany in the 1930’s in my dinner conversation with my youngest while watching the news earlier tonight. I wonder how many people in the U.S. had similar hearth side comments tonight.
To: RetiredTexasVet
I agree. I fear that, too. Now that I am 65, and on Medicare...although not by choice...I am afraid that no doctor in town will take Medicare patients. I do have a very good insurance policy that I kept from my working days, but if that plan goes away in a year or two, I would not be able to afford what I have now.

Can the state of california make a claim on your money if you moved away years ago and did all the paperwork correctly.... I.e. had a professional tax preparer file the forms?
What about all the people that had to relocate for their jobs?
Anybody here have firsthand experience with what california is trying to do, according to the article in post 1 and the link I posted above?
Anybody that can run this article by a professional tax preparer, and get their evaluation?

I think it's more like 1934. The apparatus is in place, but it is only being tried out on a test basis right now. When the go-ahead is given, people won't know what hit them. Try escaping when you can't even drive two miles without your license plate being read, you can't buy anything without a credit card that the NSA tracks, and you can't go into a transit center without your face being scanned. Not to mention the inability to email anyone to plan anything without it being read.
When the time comes, the noose will tighten so quickly, 1935 will become 1938 in about 3 weeks.

With the Fed printing phony money they don’t have to actually take your money to take your money...
