I think a better way of putting this is “don’t invest where you will be punished”. This is far more to the point. For example, if Obama wants to jack up the capital gains tax, don’t invest where there are capital gains, instead invest in tax free investments, like (selected) municipal bonds.

Since the government has outlawed incandescent light bulbs, starting with 100W bulbs in January of 2012, that is, in just 28 months, invest heavily in 100W bulbs. Buy enough light bulbs to last you for 20 years. Figure 5 a year, that’s 100 bulbs, or 25 four-packs.

Because the government’s economic policies are so reckless and out of control, it would probably be a good idea to invest in some emergency food and other supplies, as well as health products.

But the all time best investment is always people. If you have a network of friends, and you all work for your mutual benefit, even in small ways, you cut the government out of a lot of the process.

Here's a great website/forum for survival tips. Stocking food, bug out packs, emergency tips, gardening, etc.

Wilderness survival.

It's not a nutjob place.

Is it going to be illegal to sell leftover inventory as of then or just to manufacture after then?
