Wyoming issuing its own alternative currency, if needed. And House members approved an amendment Friday by state Rep. Kermit Brown, R-Laramie, to have the task force also examine conditions under which Wyoming would need to implement its own military draft, raise a standing army, and acquire strike aircraft and an aircraft carrier.

Just a landlocked training mockup would be my guess.

WHy would Wyoming need an aircraft carrier? to defend the Free State of Northern California.

The water is to practice their “man overboard” drills.

Buy all the surplus Harriers they can get and store them in strategic parts of the state.

"Molon Labe!"

A novel by Boston T. Party (Kenneth W. Royce)

Book Description:

"After a decade of retaking their stolen freedoms, the people of Wyoming (many of them newcomers) are forced to finally confront their jealous masters in the U.S. Government. Can a lone, courageous state successfully resist federal tyranny, or has the Bill of Rights been reduced to a myth? Can an allegedly free people act free, or is our liberty just a 4th of July farce?

These issues weigh heavily on the shoulders of Governor James Wayne Preston, a decorated Desert Storm Marine helo pilot. Elected in 2014 on the Laissez-Faire Party ticket, he enjoys nearly full support of the legislature to return Wyoming to a long-lost era of liberty. But how far can he and the people of his state go before Washington, D.C. feels compelled to act? Will Wyoming's free and independent course reach actual secession? Will President Melvin Connor suppress the maverick Western state with federal troops? Will anybody come to Wyoming's aid?

Molon Labe! is a fictional account of a real-world blueprint for a free state initiative focused on Wyoming. If enough freedom-loving individuals will relocate there under a useful pattern, they can "liberate" the Cowboy State on many levels.

In Wyoming we could truly enjoy our rights of gun ownership, privacy, schooling, health and diet, unrestricted travel, and property. Boston shows us how it actually can be done!"

They will need submarines to protect it.

Maybe they plan on invading a couple of states.

Maybe they plan on defending the Constitution.

[Jonty30]

Let us assume that, just for the sake of argument, that the US has gotten to the point where Washington has dumped the constitution and that Wyoming is taking a final stand against the government of tyranny.

Which lake does Wyoming intend to keep this aircraft carrier, or if it intends to keep it in the Pacific, how does it intend to keep it well supplied without having to go through Idaho to do it?

[beaversmom]

Wyoming border not too far away if my family and I need to invade, but if Yellowstone blows, I don’t want to be any closer.

[Jonty30]

No worries.

The moles and gophers will compensate.

“My state tried it about a hundred and fifty years ago. It didn’t go well.”

Carrier technology is much more advanced now.

[The Great RJ]

The SS (State Ship) Wyoming aircraft carrier might be a bit far fetched, but preparing for a meltdown of the federal government sadly may be good thinking. If Obama is re-elected such a meltdown could happen with chaos in the streets like Greece and some states actually seceding from the Union.

[wyokostur]

I think we need as many as we could get...why does everybody assume the carrier has to be in the state of Wyoming? I’m sure Texas and Alaska would gladly welcome our carriers alongside their coastline in a SHTF scenario.

[DNME]

We cannot expect Washington insiders to fix Washington’s problems. Even the newbies we send to Congress get corrupted — and quickly — so nothing ever gets done.

Only the States can solve this nightmare.

Remember, the free and sovereign States banded together to form a Union. The Constitution was written and ratified to create that Union and protect our freedoms. If that Constitution is set aside, as we’re seeing now, then the States must exercise their sovereignty to get us back on course. And THAT will NOT play well in Washington!

ATTABOY, WYOMING!! KEEP IT UP!!

[Lmo56]

They might want to hold off on that aircraft carrier until they get a coastline.

Wyoming NEEDS the aircraft carrier in preparation of the execution of its Master Plan - the invasion of ... [wait for it] ... Canada ...

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

Instead of creating their own state gold-backed currency, which is the only US constitutional way they could do it directly, they should create a heavily audited, state insured corporation to issue a scrip currency.

This would pass legal muster, and it would have all the advantages of script currency, which are plenty, plus powerful laws of economics on its side.

It would go a huge distance to stabilize their economy in uncertain economic times, and it would always be a completely *voluntary* system for everyone involved.

It could also be a secure, common technology but high tech way of doing things. Most cellphones with cameras could be used as “cash registers”. This would keep costs of the system very low. Mostly just computers and phone lines.

The scrip itself could be printed on plain paper. The important part of the scrip would be the data matrix bar code on the reverse. It would be confirmed with a PIN number.

Using the system would be about as easy as using a debit card, but without a card reader or a credit card company.
