You have it wrong. If the economy tanks the people will want more socialism. If the economy recovers, and it will, the people will boot out the tax and spenders. The uS economy is greater than obamas actions.

I guess that's why Jimmy Carter got reelected, huh?

Quit your job right now and join the ranks of the unemployed to further the process of "righting the system". Somehow I don't think you will.

I was let go from the company where I worked over a year ago and have been unemployed ever since then. I was an independent contractor at that company, so I couldn't collect unemployment when I was let go. At this point I'm living off a little bit of savings that I had. I'm intentionally not looking for work right now to do my part to "starve the beast" by reducing tax collections by the government. There are some of us out here that aren't just all talk and no action.

The fact you lost your job sucks. That said, intentionally not looking for work to "starve the beast" is a puzzling decision. Our economy is NOT directed by the government...it's directed by the productivity of the American people. What will you do when you run out of savings?

So what happens when you run out of money? Who is going to feed your face? Who are you going to have to beg or mooch off of if you stick to your principles and don't ask for gov't help?

What happens when your healthcare runs out and you accidently chop off your arm cutting your firewood? Who will pay for that?
