I must have missed it when I retired from the Marines. $150,000, in my dreams.

The looters are in control. Set your alarms.

And keep your powder dry.

Line.
Sand.
Drawn.

Rick Ackerman is a very sharp market analyst, with an interest in gold and precious metals stocks. His specialty is what he calls the “hidden pivot” in chart analysis. I haven’t subscribed to his service, but I’ve read quite a lot of his work.

He’s not usually into politics. It sounds as if he must be feeling pretty desperate, to write this.

Obama is an evil communist dictator.

Every day these they pass more laws and regulations that take away our freedom.

They have even banned light bulbs for the government funded hoax of goball warming:

This shows socialism doesn't work.

Every person I have talked to isn't even aware that they are banning lightbulbs. Soon they'll want to check our houses to see if we have them and haven't changed to those mercury laden curly bulbs.

democrats/communists have to be stopped.

Most of the people who voted for obama don’t have 401ks. And many who voted for Romney don’t have any either. So, if the government said “We’re going to take your 401k and you’ll be better off” there are millions who will say “Great! I don’t have one so I don’t care.” And many people who have them will say “Okay, I trust the government.”

Let me see if I can make the paradigm easy to understand ...

Its now the Makers VS. the Takers.

Correct

Buy a small patch of farmland and grow your own food.

Yeah, that takes a ton of work but the value of your sweat is plummeting right now. Make something real from it.

After that it’s just ammunition and a good water supply.

See you after the shooting dies down.

[Tublecane]

I don’t get the 401k scare. Granted, government will confiscate if the mood strikes. But they’ll take anything because they’re sluts. Why are we so particularly defensively about 401ks, anyway, when they started openly and deliberately stealing retirement for our own good over 70 years ago? It’s as if they banned fruit, then legalized apples, and now we’re frightened they’ll take away our apples. What about the rest of the fruit? Should’ve held the line for it all instead of apples alone.

Besides, if they can’t get 401k money directly they’ll inflate it into their coffers.

Just look at that map, all that Red area is transferring their wealth and property to the Blue to pay for their self voted entitlements.

At some point the Red will figure out what’s going on then its going to ge ugly IMO.

I just wish I would have spent it on hookers and booze instead of saving it all those years.

Prepare. Persevere.

“They have even banned light bulbs for the government funded hoax of goball warming”

That was pure GOP. Fred Upton put it in the bill, and Bush signed it.

Now that Obama stole the election we now live in a communist dictatorship ( what people always came to America to get away from).It's the communist piece of crap Obama that is destroying our freedom and our country . It was Obama , democrats and the media who passed socialist Obamacare with which the government now will control every aspect of our healthcare and so controls the individual and all of us. Obamacare killed freedom and tipped us into becoming a socialist county and Not a single Republican voted for the socialist Obamcare but I'm sure you will all try to blame Republicans for that too instead of focusing on the threat Obama and the democrat party who are evil anti-American communists nothing of you which can claim Bush was)Yeah sure everything is Bush's fault to you( I bet you think Bush wrote Obamacare and the 100,000 of pages of laws and more government regulations democrats have imposed on us). I can tell you that if Obama and democrats do not get thrown out of power AND we remove all of these government regulators (including the EPA and IRS) that we will be slaves in decaying socialist hell hole the likes of we have never seen , a huge public housing project at best .

Conservatives believe in helping the poor, but NOT helping them STAY POOR!!!
