Buyers Remorse

More and more, the TV news bimbos and bobbleheads are starting to look like deer caught in the headlights as they report Obama's true intentions. They are starting to realize that this "great communicator" is not the "savior" they all worshiped just a few short weeks ago.

All of them, from FOX's Hannity to CNN's Meade, are the very people Obama is targeting to pay for his incredible spending spree, and they are starting to understand that they have been betrayed by the very man they thought was their all-new champion.

If Obama was to take 100% of the income of those making over 250,000/yr., it would not be enough to cover the present shortfall, much less even a portion of his projected FOUR TRILLION DOLLAR budget. His idea to increase the taxes on these people is what the Wall Street journal is calling his "2% illusion", a pipe dream carrying disastrous consequences. Obama and this Congress - who will rubber-stamp his "budget" - is going to spend the money, but it isn't there to spend, not now, not ever. This "tax the rich" nonsense is exactly that... nonsense.

Like most of his ilk, Obama must be very bad at math, since almost anybody that can use a ten-dollar calculator has figured out that his numbers don't add up... not even close. His first month in office has resulted in a more than 5 trillion-dollar spending spree. We cannot survive this kind of fiscal insanity.

We are in serious trouble folks, and the man leading this insane charge into financial ruin is the president himself, followed by a bumbling herd of slavering morons, otherwise often referred to as Congress.

Now is really the time for us to start planning - and acting on those plans - as to how we will survive the coming collapse. You have to realize that - for example - a national trucking stoppage* of only a two-week duration would see countless millions on the edge of starvation in cities all across America, and that's just for starters.

A man watching his children starve to death will kill you for a can of beans.

Civilization will not collapse... far from it. But there may be coming a period of time when you will have to rely entirely on yourself and what preparations you have made.

Understand... and prepare, as best you can.

*Trucks bring almost 100% of foodstuffs into our cities. If the trucks stopped rolling, grocery store shelves would empty in hours. Restaurants and fast-food outlets would shut down over night... all their supplies come by truck.

Now, just suppose that the federal reserve dollar collapsed to the point that truckers could not get enough of them for even one tank of fuel. Under those circumstances, credit cards, debit cards, checks... all would be worthless. The trucks couldn't move. It could easily take several weeks for whatever new monetary system cooked up by Washington to become somewhat effective, so be prepared to outlast that time period.

It's not rocket science, it's just common sense. Civilization is not doomed or some such calamity, but we are facing the high probability of a very unstable period of time that could be incredibly dangerous for the unprepared. Don't be one of them.

I'm less concerned at this point with truck stoppages than I am with open civil war.
People have been talking revolution since Bubba's non-reality-facing fiasco in the 90s. Now, they're beyond talking, and well into planning and arming.
The West will probably be the first to break away, as you've reported, following Oklahoma's lead.

I used the truck stoppage as an example Ted.
