That is to leave
No realistic choices of which I am aware.
Notice I did not say that "reforming the GOP" or the "election process" are viable options.
Agreed.
Do you have other thoughts or suggestions? I am not familiar with "nullification". Could you post a link that we can all review?
Here's Dr. Williams' article.
Also don't see why you're saying armed rebellionis unacceptable.
"Is life so dear, is peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, Give me Liberty of Give me Death!"
"One response to federal encroachment is for state governments to declare federal laws that have no constitutional authority null and void, and refuse to enforce them."
Unfortunately, I think the state governments are just as bad as the federal behemoth, just on a smaller scale. Besides, can you see any state refusing to enforce the unConstitutional gun laws? I doubt even Texas would allow gang-land students to carry rifles to school again.

Actually, there are quite a number of, not only realistic choices, but very attractive choices. In fact, as pointed out in the article "Tick-Tick-Tick - The Economy Bomb", many wealthy families have already taken advantage of this option and many more are in the process of making plans to follow them. Here are two very good sites to help you learn more about where these expats are going and where you might want to go, as well.
Regardless of whether you plan to leave or not, it is a good idea to have an exit strategy in place, just in case things should become bad enough that you should suddenly feel that you have to leave. If you don't have an exit strategy and it should get that bad, it will be too late to learn all that you need to know to move offshore without risk. Escape Artist has country profiles on many different countries favored by expats. Sovereign Society has lots of good info and a great free newsletter. But, the main thing that they have is an excellent list of links to other offshore related sites - just click on "Offshore Resources" on their home page.
