"When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." - Benjamin Franklin;
"And when politicians find that honor and character matter less than buying votes and a constituency, that too will herald the end of the Constitution. When that happens we must work tirelessly to change their minds, or their occupation!" - Hoping The Blind Will See

Do You Think It Will Come To This?

What happens when we reach 12% unemployment? Add to that number of people, the number of "retired" people who are most definitely on a fixed income. Add to that the number of people who have never had a job because of their age. Add to that the number of people in the military (non-career) who are not included in the unemployment numbers. Easily 1 out of every 5 working age adults will not be working. Now, factor in the new taxes this administration (I use that word loosely, as they are really too inept to truly be called that) plans to levy on "rich" Americans. (How long do you think it will take to trickle down to the middle class)? Then factor in the increase in cost of everything we'll need to buy - prices will be going up, the rich WILL pass on the cost of their tax increases. Cap & Trade, if it passes, will be passed on to us in increased prices as well. Lastly, factor in the fact that the dollar is plummeting, inflation is coming, and our buying power will soon be dramatically less than it's ever been. When that all happens, how long do you think it will take before the powder keg blows? My suggestion? Start buying canned and boxed goods, water and other necessary items that will sustain you for a good while. Then store it someplace safe. Go to a gun show, learn about personal protection and the type of gun that would be of benefit to you (everyone is different). Then buy a gun, and ammunition for it. You won't be the only one - gun sales are off the charts!! This may sound a little far-fetched, maybe even a bit on the wacky side, but wouldn't you rather be safe than sorry? Don't hide your head in the sand, someone might say "look, there's another #$$!", cuz that's all that'll be showing... Wake up America!
