I agree about your thread idea. I’ve been thinking about the same things, and I did reduce a tip last night to just 15% instead of the usual 20, thinking just like you do. I plan on asking my housekeepers who they supported (this may be a tricky question), but I know she supported Bush in 04. Her employment with me depends on her answer. My money will NOT be spent in liberal establishments if I can catch a glimmer of Obot-ness from them. I’ll be watching people carefully over the next several days.
Oh, and I’m letting these people know why I no longer go to their stores/ tip them/ donate $$, etc...
I don’t know if there are any FR sticky threads, or how to keep such a thread going over the next four years, but I think that from a pocketbook standpoint we need to go into survival mode. I certainly don’t have all the answers, I’ve posted what I could think of, which is why I think it needs to be something that we can all contribute to and go to for guidance. The looters are coming for our wallets, and it is our duty to ourselves and our families to not only deny them this to the best of our ability but to survive the damage they will do in their greed.
As for the rally for the new Stalin, I wouldn’t know. Encore has Mad Max on, a flick I just can’t resist :^)
