Compare this thread from earlier this year http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1994684/posts
With this article & recent history... http://www.cnbc.com/id/27641538
for later
Will be getting a small inheritance shortly. We live pay-to-pay and have no savings. We do have credit card debt. The extra money will pay ALL debt except the house (down to $37k now), and we will be able to put $5k in the bank. This is all we can do right now. I just want to be sure that this is what we should do - pay all debt that we can - rather than to hold onto the money for any other reason. Any confirmation or quick advice?
Well, things are lining up.

The act of suspending his campaign is consistent with the gist of a closed-door session of Congress in March.
It’s not impossible that McCain knew more than we did, and did what he thought was more important at the time.
Apparently winning the Presidential race (suspending his campaign) was not as important as promoting a Bailout Package which was subsequently abandoned by Paulsen today. Their charade is becoming painfully obvious.
The best way to survive is to have land in an rural area, know all your neighbors, and above all have enough hands to man a defense 24/7. You’d do well to invite some friends or close relatives over to stay with you in things get hairy.
After a while you and your husband will get tired and fall asleep. At least with a big family you can set a watch, and the older kids could learn how to handle firearms and use them if necessary.
I hope that theres a "generator: Check" in there to keep your beef frozen in case the power goes out long-term.
Paying off all of your credit card debt is a very good idea!
Very interesting correction at the bottom of the article. Sounds like they’ve been getting irate calls and letters! Probably FReeprs, LOL!
Wonder when they added that “correction”?
Indeed they are.
It boggles my mind that some FREEPER CHRISTIANS ARE STILL BLIND about such things.

This video may provide more information for you. This man understood this better than we do now.

Earlier in the year, someone posted a link to a screen play written about an economic collapse in the US here on Freerepublic. The main character worked in Oakland and was trying to get to a ranch in Idaho. Anyone got a link to that screenplay ? I forgot to bookmark it and cannot find it in a search. It covered some of the scenarios we all may be faced with in the future, assuming the worse case scenario.
With the full force of the U.S. Government, he can do whatever he wants. There isn't a lot anyone can do to stop it. He who lives by the sword, etc...
Fear him, yes. But hate him, or wish ill on him (even if he wishes ill on some of us, as he may)? No...
If he reaches out, if he turns out to be a tolerant man (one of the touted strengths of liberalism), it is a mercy for which we can be thankful. If OTOH he is all about power, himself, and his friends, it is the worse for us. Either way, I believe the best response is clearly stated in Scripture:
"Kindness, patience, gentleness, self-control, against such things there is no law" (Gal. 5:22). Also "Love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you."
Nowhere is that a more powerful witness than amidst tyranny.
I realize this is not going to go over well in this forum, but it is the best response I can glean from Scripture.
checked out my Pray for Obama threads?
No. I’ve been looking for such a thread. This man NEEDS our prayers! I’d very much appreciate a link.
