We may just end up like the family in "The Grapes of Wrath", going from one refugee camp (obamaville) to another in search of some kind of paying job, or a morsel of food before it's over.

The quickest way to break the back of D.C. right now would be for everyone just to quit work and sign up for unemployment...a National STRIKE, so to speak. The kenyan and all of his unionhead buddies should understand "strike"...wouldn't you think.

Within a months time - or less - the nation would be in chaos with little or no tax revenue flowing to D.C. and 300 million people putting in for welfare, food stamps and unemployment at the same time.

The only workers left would be government workers...and guess where their money comes from.

I know it can't happen, people have to eat and raise kids and all that...but it would get someone's attention in DC in short order. But, the "moocher" class would probably ruin it.

Maybe all the industries in America could just take a 6 month leave of absence...closing to "re-tool", so to speak...that would wake some people up also.

He wants to take the nation down, let's help him and accelerate it. Have everyone so mad at him that he'd catch "cessna one" back to Kenya.
