you're correct there, I never claimed it to be or confused it to be directed to me. I simply quoted and asked a few very simple minded questions hoping to get some answers.
Simple minded they were, yes. It is the best you have offered thus far. But, why did you ask?
To get back on topic...I'm not too worried about government takeover. We'd have to get pretty bad for that to happen and we're too apathetic for that. More action going on in the European cities with their austerity measures than here. OWS ? They will soon be out of money and then what ? (down to 100K in the bank in NYC).

Nah..I'm not worried.
yes, but depending on Europe we could see major financial meltdown here which could effect us in ways we haven't even thought of.
It is major what the world crisis could come to.. they can't just keep pretending that it is ok and Bernanke says we still are in trouble. If they were really honest with us, we would probably freak out at the enormity of it all. We are so entwined with the European economy and it can't be undone.
I hate to sound doomsday, but I don't think they want us to know the complexity and repercussions of it to the american taxpayer.
The good times will come to an end. And with it we could default as a nation, because the taxpayer cannot solve it even with higher tax burdens.

We had that once before here in America..it is called the Great Depression.
Now if that happens, well I'm rural and have no debts. Well, septic and folks out here grow alot of their own and raise livestock. I think I have a better chance of not seeing mobs of people looting than folks in the city. We don't have Wallymart or Target or those huge warehouse supermarkets out here. I don't envision a Katrina like lawlessness out here in the boondocks ...those people would be pretty tired once they walked 90 miles from the nearest big city to my town.

It helps when billionaires sponsor a movement. No?

You are very fortunate. Your situation enables you to have ways to get food and basic needs should all hell break loose.
The inner cities will have the challenges.. the 99%ers will be out in full force if food and gas go to unreal prices.
Obama is stoking the flames with the message of the haves and the have nots. Obama may well regret it .
They could turn on him as well if the situation we face is really devastating and it could really get out of hand with no way to quell the anger. Obama is playing with fire.

And maybe that is on purpose ?
