“But enough bragging on PA. In the larger picture, we conservatives may have to accept the inevitability of a Galt’s Gulch scenario. We might be well advised to explore the options for “back-up” property in the countryside. Because we might, at the rate things are going, be backed into a conservative reservation whether we like it or not; and because when societies collapse, individuals can do little more than join the pockets of survivors and stand by ready to rebuild. I say we should do it on our own terms, our own schedule, in our own interests.

Recommended: Wyoming and Alaska. Sadly not recommended: Texas.”

I'm looking for land where it is warm and don't have to rely on heating costs and am able to grow food most of the year. Wyoming and Alaska ain't it unfortunately.

New Hampshire is definitely a great state (no income or sales tax), but the long cold winters get tiring and the growing months are way to short.

How about Tennessee? Last I heard, auto insurance wasn’t mandatory there — so it’s still a free country in that regard.
It’s warmer. They respect gun owners. Lots of rural property, great scenery, and the music ain’t bad :)
