[Nowhere Man]

He was right.

He was just ahead of his time...

I do agree. 1973 seems to stick in my mind when he first told me that and even today, he says it the same was as he did then. He was a bit off, he figured that "it" would happen by 1985, no later than 1990, certainly by the year 2000. He told me that "the United States will no longer exist in its present form (1973) and you will be young enough to see it happen." He then went on to a possible civil war spurred on by economic collapse to where we will have a gaggle of smaller nations where the U.S. exists, much like the Europe of 1973 with the new small nations. I just turned 40 last Saturday and I'm still convinced I'm young enough to see something like that happen.

I admit nothing last forever, one day, we might have to spend some times on the sidelines, but I know we are headed toward some sort of reckoning when we see a lop sided economy with the few making out like a bunch of bandits while the middle class is being squeezed to death and the poor being largely forgotten. We have lost a lot on the moral side of things too as well as losing our culture. Michael Savage is correct, we need "borders, language and culture" as well as the will to fight to survive. If we don't have those things plus that will to fight, we deserve to lose and go through some tribulation. I hate to put it that way, but we do need some sort of shock to get people to realize that we can lose it all.

... and what we really also need (to help us put the quietus on the profligate government spending and robbery of taxpaying citizens) - what we really, really need is a mechanism to held educate voters as to what "their government" is really costing them so they'll be angry enough and (finally) awake enough to react at the voting booth to change it.

What we really need to realize is:

It's time for the FairTax!!!

It will do precisely that while helping most taxpayers and the economy as well.
