If we attempt to do this, and don't succeed, we will look like a paper tiger.. Personally, I am willing to do it.. But I am old, and have only a few short years to live it down.. LOL

I am really not 100% sure what you want to do?

I see the reasons, but not the actual plan.  Or am I missing something?

It’s the courageous thing to do. The system will crash, but it is the least we can do for those that shed their blood for freedom.

When rats take over your house, burn down the house and build another.

I’m out of debt aside from my house and don’t pine for many material things. I’d be fine with it just tanking. I’m already anticipating layoffs in my company. I just started here, so I’d be low-hanging fruit for them.

Another Great Depression does not sound too good. Such circumstances have historically strengthened the radical, political left; it is the last thing we need to have happen.

BTW.. keep this under your hat.. Loose lips and all that.. shuuuuush.. :)

Part of any prepper type activities for this should be to use your newly accquired EBT and SNAP cards to buy food that is storable...

Can the Food Insurance site take EBT cards?

You can buy all sorts of canned and dried food with EBT, you can buy Jerky with it... ect.....

WHY SHOULD PREPPERS SPEND THEIR OWN DAMNED ALREADY TAXED MONEY TO PREPARE FOR THE COLLAPSE THAT IS INEVITABLE????

WE SHOULD BE THE ANT THAT ROARED AND USE THEIR TOOLS AGAINST THEM AND USE THOSE TOOLS THEY GIVE US TO PREPARE FOR THE COLLAPSE THAT THOSE VERY TOOLS WILL EVENTUALLY CREATE.

The Grasshoppers will use their EBT cards to buy junk food and lobster, use your EBT to buy long term food storage.... Save your grocery budget to buy brass instead, it is going to be a lot more expensive soon enough!

Don’t just “Go Galt”, Instead “Poll Vault” so far over their heads they don’t even see it comming!

Ha-ha! Got this visual in my head of rats running rampant everywhere in our house. Yes, that's what is happening to our nation, filthy rats everywhere I look. I say let the fiscal cliff happen, hold the line and no more taxes, let the rats squirm when everything burns. Obama can blame the guy who held the White House the last four years.

It's a secret, but I can tell you if you promise to keep it quiet! Tell the GOP to vote NO on raising the DEBT LIMIT.. viola.. BOOM!

I agree that going over the cliff and widespread collapse may be the only solution for the fatal Marxist virus running through the US. But, how do we get that tower of jello Boehner to stand tall and refuse to increase the debt ceiling and refuse some deal with Obama on the Fiscal Cliff. I think the House is going to go along in some bipartisan deal and they will not listen to the GOP base.

I agree. Let it crash. It's early, in four years, the electorate will have forgotten the who, what, when, etc. Believe me, they will! Clintoon raised taxes, retroactively, at the beginning of his first term (so that I, for the only time in my life, actually owed still more when I filed) and by '96, the people had forgot all about it (and re-elected him).

Crash it, repeat ad nauseum that it's the Dems fault. The media, of course, will blame the Repubs, but they always do and will do so in this case, no matter what, anyway. Start talking a recovery game and do it for the next four years until people say, "I keep hearing about that." and they'll start to pay attention.

Either that, or use the crash to tell the libs to take their part of the country and start their own, we'll clean up the mess here and carry on.

Iceland jumped off the cliff, and now they are well on the way to recovery.

HOW MUCH ARE YOU WILLING TO RISK..?????

You’ll probably lose 50% of your net worth almost immediately.
Agree, you’ll lose it anyway, but over a longer period of time. If you think we’re looking after too many now, just imagine that number multiplied by 10. Civil war would be inevitable...I don’t want to have to kill my neighbor.

I personally think that “We, the People” don’t have to do anything right now, except wait.

The Obama Crime Syndicate is planning to turn over (what little remains of) U.S. sovereignty to the UN. Soon, treaties will be signed which will curtail gun ownership rights for U.S. citizens, regulate the Internet and control oil and mineral rights in the world’s oceans i.e., the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST).

Add to that the plan to continue to expand the welfare state by taxing the productive class at ever higher rates, in order to pay for “more free stuff” that the parasitic class will demand.

And Obamacare will ruin the once finest medical treatment system the world has known.

The system will crash all on its own, but not the way the left wants it to.

So the irony

We may need to go over the Cliff. If I thought substantial automatic cuts in spending were in fact to happen I would be happy to pay the additional 18K it will cost me in taxes. Of course the following year I would expect to pay much less as I will clearly take an income hit. About the one year anniversary of tumbling over and assuming the correct cuts are made I expect the takers will realize the problems they created and will educate themselves.

Batten down the hatches

If an army of dumbed down leeches takes 50 years to take down a system and collapse it...

Imagine what a group of producers who are pissed off and know hard work and are extremely motivated can do in 4 short years!

This election has proven to me that the system is dead and since we cannot pull the plug on the welfare state which is locked up in the next room, the next best thing to unplugging it is not to stop paying the elctricity bill (”going galt”) because they can always borrow from other countries/our kids futures etc...

No, the solutuion is to “Poll Vault” over their heads and start plugging in as many hair dryers, space heaters, and microwaves into the circuit until we trip the damned breaker and then when they come screaming to us we position ourselves as the breaker box behind their backs and let them know we will only reset it once they unplug their damned stuff.

“Going Galt” WILL ONLY WORK ON A SYSTEM THAT HAS CURRENCY THAT IS BACKED BY SOMETHING OF VALUE!!!
