My assessment, also. Would that it were not so. But it isn't. Nothing left but to prepare, and to prepare well. In the cold light of dawn and reason, my hope is to live through what's coming or, failing that, to take as many of the bastards with me as I can. It has come to this.
A little town a few miles away from me made the mistake of accepting city water. Now a few remaining families are being sued for refusing to “destroy” their private wells by dumping concrete down them. Capping the wells isn’t enough for nanny government, they want those wells rendered forever un usable.
That is how nanny government works. They promise benefit but don’t mention the part about forever placing yourselves under control.
