Answer 3

what scares me is all the softies hanging around the courthouse everyday looking for freebies.  Yikes!  they get free food, and get free kids, and free drugs and free money and free places to live.  They dont even want to work cause they just get stuff for free.  If I didnt have to pay for these softies, I could pay teachers something.

Answer 4

I am trying to remain optomistic. But as a safegaurd, we are in the process of pulling out our investments out to put them in something like an annuity where they wont keep losing $.

Until this c**p passes. Thank God our house is paid off!

I am thankful we have a roof over our head and the house is  ours. I dont know how other people are doing it. I feel sorry for them.

I also grow my own food and will try growing tomatoes and green peppers inside this winter. I also have a mini orchard peach tree and just planted 1 (new) peach tree and 2 apple trees. The apples should produce next year. The Older peach tree is NOT the healthiest tree but it does produce fruit. If worse comes to worse. (I am still learning about what to put on it for insects /disease where the peaches are safe to consume) and it has leaf curl . Fruit trees are hard to maintain if you dont know what you are doing. You also have to be aware of bugs and worms. We will see what happens.

This is my plan for survival.If anything should happen.

Answer 5

This country's so full of primitive idiots that I don't think I can tolerate living here anymore anyway.
