Now I'm so glad I didn't join the state police... If I did, I'd probably just be a pawn of Obama's upcoming paramilitary force to ensure we all turn off our electricity on time.

The guy is already talking about punishing anyone who tries to run their American incorporated businesses overseas because of supply costs, but at the same time, will still punish them for producing enough product to make a self-sustaining profit. He's even been quoted as to making our electric bills "skyrocket" (his EXACT words) in order to force companies into compliance.

Last time I checked, capitalism was about letting MARKET CONDITIONS determine what businesses survive, and which ones fall.

My income is now going directly to purchase as many survival supplies as possible. I do not intend to live with a traceable identity when things go south.

Suggestions for a constitutional monarchy or democratic nation to which I can emmigrate?
