The greatness of this country is truly on the edge, I didn't think it was possible, but we are here. Over the next 4 years the takers will increase, the producers income will decrease that will cause spending and debt to go through the roof, I believe the US version of Greece is not far away and we need to be prepared for an attack on the 2nd Amendment through executive orders.
We may not all have the same outlook, I have been ridiculed by family members and coworkers for having the "self sufficient and survivalist mentality" but I am very comfortable about my fate over these next four years. My house is in order, I have no debt and have made preparations to the best of my abilities. The only thing I can do now is sit back and trust that God sees us through this time to our benefit. Now will be the time when the takers will not be able to take because the makers won't be able to keep up....To everyone that lives paycheck to paycheck and finances everything, my heart goes out to them. This will be indeed a time where their faith and will is tried. I remain optimistic, because I think the powers that be have failed to take into account the nature of the average American's spirit and will power. We as a nation have overcome worse, and this too shall pass. Chin up.
