A Hypothetical Question

A Hypothetical Question

PostBy: franco b On: Sat Sep 01, 2012 2:46 pm

Just to put things in perspective: Lets suppose the country was deeply divided between the private sector and government and each side threatened to walk out if they did not get their way.

How would you best survive, with a government walkout or private walkout.

I think you would do just fine if government walked out, probably for years, except for the government parasites.

With a private sector walkout all would be in trouble in a few days.

I think that illustrates where our major concern should be.

Don't forget the horse manure will be worth a fortune.

The answer is obvious. The private sector creates real wealth, and the government exists merely as a parasite feeding off of the wealth of the private sector.

All the government can do is print IOU's (notes). Oh, I forgot, they abrogated that authority to a private banking cartel, the one which calls them FRN's (Federal Reserve Notes). All the government can do now is print Treasury Notes.

Real wealth??? you'd best get over all that if you are referring to monetary wealth & do some research on the barter system--granted at some point monetary will come back when it has the gold & silver to back it--the first initial problem will be the govt. parasites--I know of one solution for all that :) If push comes to shove, I guarantee, it ain't gonna be pretty for some. :(
