Taking your "downsize" plan a step further, if the left wants a "depression", let's give them one.

We need to learn to live on less for the tenure of the chosen one. Put off that new car for 4 more years...hell, mine is 9 years old and working just fine.

Don't buy any new housing for four years.

Buy only the necessities (which after four years of Zero is all we'll be able to do.).

The only way to combat this fool is to put the economy further in the tank than it was when he took office.

ditto...the only solution is to refuse to participate. I think survival mode, not prosperity mode, is the proper stance now for all conservatives. They can’t finance their new playground if the producers aren’t contributing.

Oh that Obama and the ‘et als’ would care? America ‘on it’s knees’ give them power and ‘reaon to be’ and of course, in the end; it does put money in ‘their’ pockets. It is the ‘third-world’ MO. . .richest of ‘Leaders’. . .while the rest of the country live like surfs; or worse.

FrankR, dude Thanks for the ping. Dude, I’m already there, I do nothing of value 99.9% of the time. I see where You’re comming from though. But we must wait until the “Anointed One” actually takes office before we can even have an effect. Be carefull my FRiend, and be sure to include 2 of every kind in your ark (except libs).
For me, myself, I needs a view...
The retardation that will shurly sweep, this, (our) nation will in fact know no bounds, It’s better than a garuntee.

BTW I’d like to be on the night watch on your Ark. We all gotta take turns...

Belive me when I say I’ll do mine

Dude I’m there.

Well, given what he’s already promised, I don’t think anyone is going to need to put themselves on a budget, perforce, they’ll be on a budget. But, I’d watch to see where the Dem Congresscritters are sheltering their incomes, and how.

We own our house and vehicles and have no debt.

It’s not always easy to make ends meet, but... we’ll manage.

I agree with your prescription. I’m fully prepared to minimize consumption. I’ve already stopped consuming the local fish-wrapper. I no longer consume the “news-weeklies.” I consume very little TV, and I make an effort not to consume the products of any company that I suspect of complicity in the current mania.

I’m with you - let’s crash the system.

I would even go so far as to say we see what “gov’t assistance” that we can get, and as much of it as we can syphon off.

Put all your assets in a trust or LLC, appear to be broke.

Double ditto!

Who is John Galt?
