Oh you bet, planters from the past century. Some of your ancestors probably worked for them. But none today.
Back from your emergency enema already. You did shower afterwards didn't you!!?? The way out? I'm not going anywhere. It's you liberal moRons who have the most to lose now. You had better watch your backs. Things have a way of sneaking up on you and kicking your dumb asses to the curb.
Impress and ET members is an oxymoron. No where else can so many ghosts walk around with impunity, that is why most of you are here. If I wanted to impress I could start a journal where there are 2k member online right now. This was about poking fun at rednecks.
What if the gov one day decides that something you do or own is something they no longer wish you to do or own, even though it affects no one? What if you are made an outlaw for a simple belief (as in some religious powers rising in other parts of the world)? There are other types of examples. Such occurrences have occurred repeatedly (and occur regularly) throughout history. Do you think we are immune? It doesn't hurt to distrust gov just a little when they demonstrate an insatiable desire for more power and control over our lives. I know the answer you would give is the voting booth. My answer to that is that I'm increasingly under the belief that a large part of the voting public has been bought off by the gov through entitlements. Of course, most of our politicians have been bought off, too.
Oh no, you aren't going anywhere, you will fight the civil war until you die, I am sure, but it does not change anything. The next President will be female, and then you can do more whining about the sheeple.
I have no quarrel with you wjk. I understand where you are coming from. I have some bad news. What we are going thru now is the culmination of plans hatched long before any of us were born. All we can do is prepare. You are a thoughtful fellow, and you have found the truth. Keep learning to trade, and teach your family. Get as much money as you can, then convert it into tangible assets, if you have time. The firepower behind today's military is beyond the ability to fight. If I become tomorrow's Jew, I will have to be ready to get out. You should do the same.
