What is with people theses days?

[SenorNoob]

In. Lets go.

I was hoping for more than just you. I mean I'm still in just need more people I think... I'm usually off Monday and Friday either of those work for you?

Edit: For just the 2 of us to have any effect we might be talking more than just pitchforks and torches. Although if we could get on the national news.......

Same thing happened to me

Ouch, I am supprized thy did not pry the back slide window.
Sorry for your truck, did thy make off with anything?

 

[ronclark]

Hey Ron,
I have those windows out of a truck already if you want to work a trade or something. They are even '87's.

Thanks
Rich

Thanks for the offer, I am trying to decide if it is time to upgrade to opening ones, or put the ones in my spares. my spares i have seen the weather though.
But thanks for the offer again.
What i am really looking for is a black center console.

Sorry to hear about your truck.

But it's going to get a whole lot worse I am afraid. Not talking about vandals and michief from kids being stupid.
I hate to post stuff like this ... but maybe some of you don't know whats going on.

The Fed is dumping 85 Billion...Yes Billion..with a B...a month into the stockmarket
to keep it from tanking. Bailout, stimulus..what ever! That is money printed from thin air
that we have to pay as tax payers.....Theft is what it is!
Plus it delflates the purchasing power of the dollar...causes inflation..soon hyper inflation. look up Hyperinflation in the weimar republic...or hyperinflation in zimbabwe to see what happens when you start printing money like mad.
Our dollar becomes worth less (worthless) more everyday.
Currently it has started in greece with austerity measures ( see the riots on the news?)...and now their starting it here. They passed this thing now allowing "Bail-ins"... allows the banks (that got bailed out) to now LEGALLY take money from the peoples checking and savings accounts, 401K etc... to cover their losses for making bad decisions! LEGAL THEFT of your money.

The true unemployment rate is close to 23% not 7% or 8% they claim. See the thing is,if a person is unemployed and collecting unemployment benifits,their counted. But as soon as they run out of time and not drawing unemployment benifits anymore, even tho they have no job and are still unemployed, their not counted anymore.
You got to love this new fuzzy math system they use.

Sorry for the long post guys and gals, but that is just a small taste of whats going on.
Another crash is coming soon to the markets, Soon the .gov will be broke and start cutting back on the handout programs (austerity measures). Thats when people go from stealing radios and materal things...to stealing food, gas,clothes..etc..to survive.

do some research and Prepare accordingly...

I just heard the U6 rating is 13% but unemployment went down to 6.7%

So can anyone tell me what the good news is here? don't you just hate number games.

In. Lets go.

Can we bring Shot Guns?

This country is going to hell and quick. Prepping is something that I have been slowly but steadily doing for a couple of years. Now that I have an almost 9 month old it has kicked in even more to make sure her and the old lady don't go without if something were to happen.

But if the country were to fail for some reason and people couldn't pay their mortgage payments, rent, etc...what are banks/landlords going to do, kick people out of their houses because they aren't collecting the item that had value because the government says it does?

I had my truck robbed 3 years ago and they took my sub and amp, out 60 bucks on it all, but it didn't bother me as much as somebody had their nasty paws in my truck touching it without my permission. They tried to take my cheap Wal-Mart radio buy breaking the dash bezal, supprised they didn't take the detachable face of it, but instead went for the other stuff behind the seat. Apparently craftsman tools didn't interest them, had enough there to support a habit of some kind for awhile.

Most people dont know that locking your car or truck is only going to cause more damage, I never lock mine, but I do have an alarm system but its not installed to alert people so they can run the other way, it is set up so the minute the door is opened with out hitting the alarm buttom on the key fob the alarm horn goes off inside the cab, my alarm horn is under the dash and the wires are in conduit so very hard to cut, and its so loud in the cab you will get hearing damage go deaf mo fo's

Hey i like your thinking, i would go a step farther and install a backup battery for the alarm in case thy decide to cut the battery cables.
I am going to have to do that, any recommendations on a good system?

When I lived in a apt complex years ago, I use to lock my doors.
Until one day someone shattered my drivers window in the rain to steal my cheap Walmart
Sparkomatic radio. $250 window for a $30 radio...plus the interior was soaked.
locked doors just keeps honest people honest.

Except in the case where your insurance company finds out that you didn't lock your car then they will automatically dismiss your claim.

Ive always been in a somewhat small town with very high property taxes because we have absolutely no businesses or any form of town revenue besides property tax. For the most part that has deterred a lot of crime because the people who live in my town either inherited land or have a purpose for being here and not want to bring trouble.

No apartments or any kind of low income housing to attract undesirable people who would do things like stealing. Very seldom did something happen, but when it did an example was more than made of the culprit because everyone knew who was responsible.

That's all slipping away now that a lot of 4th and 5th generations are inheriting land and developing it into million dollar suburbs. The people that move out here into those suburbs are well off and not at home all day. this has brought a lot of outside crime now. Luckily they skip my property because it looks like Sanford and Son from the road. Unfortunately for my fellow elderly neighbor farmers ill be developing my land in the next few years and heading out to an even farther remote location to avoid the suburb that my town is turning into and the petty crimes that these yuppies are bringing with them.

Also guys as for the economy, we have been off the Gold standard for a very long time already. Printing currency not worth the paper its printed on is nothing at all new. The problem in the U.S. is corporations and outsourcing. If the people in the country are not bringing in outside revenue then the country is losing money. There are not enough jobs, that is a fact. going to collage is almost useless now a days because there are already people in most fields with experience that are not employed.

The self entitled generation of the U.S. population needs to recognize that most manufacturing labor jobs and that market is gone and will not come back to the U.S. because of other countries allowing slave labor. We cant beat that market period anymore and still offer a U.S. citizen a wage they can live on. Science is the U.S. future and the up and coming generations of citizens need to grow up and realize that is the only way we can beat the rest of the world and bring outside revenue back to our country and prosper. To many of our science and math programs are occupied by foreign students that we in the U.S. teach and provide everything so they can just take it back to their country and prosper. We need that knowledge to stay in the U.S. Otherwise yes its going to keep turning into a country of no middle class.

Our country is like a single person. Worked very hard through their younger years and has since retired with a good investment to live off of while living out the rest of the American dream. That's great but that person can not live on a 401k and social security forever. Right now that's our country and we are doing nothing to reinvest in ourselves to carry on our American dream.
