Vote with your feet. My business partner and I have agreed that long-term (by 2010), we are re-domiciling our company offshore as a foreign company simply because we expect this trend to eventually make it more profitable to do business outside of the nation than inside it. The toll on the overall economy extracted by this cancerous growth of government cannot be overstated.

An interim measure I'm looking at is moving to New Hampshire to join the Free State Project, then moving offshore when we can. Realistically, I think that project will only temporarily halt the phenomena in very localized region, though I would really like to be proven wrong because I love this nation. We have concluded that this voter-fed insanity will not stop until it is forced to stop through external circumstances. I'm concerned it will take a calamitous economic disaster to shock this nation's citizens back into demanding prudent governance by themselves rather than of themselves.

My business partner's and my general idea is to do what we can to starve out this growth, while working from within to do what we can (up to a point --- after that point, we are physically getting out of Dodge) to reverse it. No use fighting something if you let it sap your own strength against you at the same time, we figure.

I agree.

It's like alcoholism: this country may have to hit bottom before we can admit that we have a problem.

God willing, we'll figure it out before then.

yes, consider the Free State Project... Us young Free Staters will need jobs when we move to New Hampshire! You older folks will have a built-in labor market for your businesses if you move them.

best regards!
