I got once we were home. Suffice to say, I did not do that again. A.S. Dave, you write: "It means the country has to support itself. It means we have to develop industry so we are not dependent on things from overseas. Corporations are going to have to come home or face starvation because people cannot afford to buy their goods. " Question for you? Why would any corporation involved in raw materials, industry, and production of retails, come back to the U.S.? There are so many environmental laws, regulations, taxes, etc., that they would actually be making losing money (although they would still make a huge profit, they want maximum profit!)

Everyone is for themselves, so you better protect your family with stockpiles of food, water, supplies, guns, ammo, etc. When the FEMA soldier comes to take you away, shoot to kill!
