What interesting times we live in. I am not a religious person at all, but think we are living in times that will be remembered. Do not think you can change anything, do not stress out about things when tshtf. Crack open a beer and watch. Enjoy the ride as we go through whatever is coming. Prepare accordingly but do not fool yourself by thinking you can avoid it. Like a sunset, enjoy it. Good luck. |

You lost me at circus. But yes, I will crack open a beer. |
|
Yeah fuck it, let's not make any effort to do anything at all. |
|
Beer at the circus is like 5 bucks fuck that. |

That's why all the cool kids wear baggy pants |

You can change a great many things, if you really try. A lot of things have changed in the world because of a single person. |

i am just saying don't be foolish and start to protest and get too involved in the political process. its too late. all i am saying is this is a time of preparations. buy food. wish that you would have bought gold. get a source of fresh water you can count on for a bit. get rid of your excess savings and buy food NOW. guns and bullets are probably a good idea too. it has started. |
|
I think buying land and seeds would be a bit smarter, if you think about it. |
|
Pff, some last stand. I'm putting all my money into a helicopter gunship. |
|
Helicopter gunships are probably legal to own in the US. You just need to make sure you know how to repair it and do regular maintenance. |
|
Yes, that is one of most absurd, stupid, disgusting things I recall ever hearing actually. |
|
Yet another reason to get rid of IP. |

Holy fuck Blueline! We just agreed about something vaguely connected to economics. Maybe there's something to this 2012 thing after all... |

Getting rid of IP seems like an epic overreaction to be honest... there's a reason nobody else bought those cars from the USSR. |

Well the fundamental problem with IP is that it corrupts the definition of theft. Any notion of theft has to be based on a concrete notion of deprivation. That is, you concretely had something and then I deprived you of it. Now I have it and you don't. This works great for physical objects. It can be extended into non-physical concepts but not uniformly as our IP laws try to do. |

But nobody would ever make anything because not only would there be no incentive but they would get into debt... |

If you're interested, Stephan Kinsella has written a book called Against Intellectual Property, available here. It's fairly short (73 pages). I needs to get around to reading it some day. |

First off, I wouldn't consider that particularly compelling if it was true. |
