Think of Gore trying to pass a simple algebra test.
Think of Clinton trying to pass a simple lie detector test.
Think of Hillary trying to “recall” a felony that she committed.
Why in h*ll do we think government idiots can do anything?
Wait ‘till robotics becomes ubiquitous. You think we’re seeing long-term unemployment now? Fugeddaboudit. It’s just around the corner too. Robots everywhere is right now about where the personal computer was in 1977.
I dream of an America where a guy can run a small business out of his home and actually make a living. Taxes, regulation, licensing, and stupid government are the only things that prevent me doing any number of things to make a living on my own. If I ever got big enough to hire 1 part time helper it would add a whole new layer of regulation and taxation.
Free market economists know that in a free society with a just government,the cure for unemployment in the long run is for the government to not intervene in the economy and allow a drop in money wage rates and prices. When both fall at the same time, there is little or no long term fall in real wage rates and the standard of living for the average worker. And the economy is not harmed by the destructive effects of inflation and government deficits.
When you have a person in the highest office of the nation that sides and is friends with socialists, marxists, communists, terrorists......what you got are problems. Problems that lead to civil unrest of the most “extreme kind”.
My opinion: America in its present form will not survive the coming economic meltdown. The first groups of unemployed will shortly have reached the limit of unemployment benefits and more will be added as theirs end (read about this yesterday). These millions will need housing, water, food and they will have no money. After the first of next year, taxes go up and government debt and banks will be in trouble due to pending deadlines (just read about that), and the country will spiral downward and never be the same. The time of TEOTWAWKI arrives.
At some point, with millions needing life sustaining shelter/water/food, it may not be safe to leave your house to buy food and other items if they are still there (no guarantee of that). It is time to gather provisions if you havent already. I stay prepared due to Texas tornados and hurricanes and have added to my provisions to last a longer time due to the meltdown that will surely happen. I will never have to depend on FEMA to give me a bottle of water or an MRE. As long as Hussein is in power, he wouldnt save me anyway as I think on my own and that puts me on his hate list.
I hope all Freepers realize the desperate situation our country is in and take action to have life sustaining insurance consisting of what it takes to live on your own for a period of time.
You likely have fire insurance, auto insurance, physical death insurance, and with what we are facing, that being the decline of the country, it makes total sense to store items to insure your family can live on its own without having to depend on others to literally live.
I wrote 20+ articles for the Survival Podcast website on how to prepare how I did it and still do it. Over 11,000 people have used these articles to help them prepare without losing their mind. If you are interested in reading these, send me a Freepmail and Ill give you instructions how to get there.
JIM, I hope I dont have to go to California to save your life. If you dont have water and food, we lose Free Republic and that is not acceptable (as long as we have electricity which hopefully we will have but no guarantee on that). Actually, even if FR goes away, I love you for being you and I would save you, FR or no FR. Guess I should store some extra honey for your wound or others you may develop. I already have two wheelchairs and other medical equipment and I was a licensed EMT and have that equipment and made the highest score on the EMT test of any in my class, so Im ready for your call.
I think Lazamataz also lives in California and Id save him if he would shut up long enough for me to do it (ha).
