Where do we go when the U.S. crashes?

I have an inflatable mattress that I'll let people use if they pass the cute test.

Or if they vote for me.

New Zealand . Incredibly beautiful landscape, nice people, English-speaking. Generally sensible.

Of course, you'd need to have your money be worth something in order to do it. Which means leaving BEFORE said crash. If you wait too long, you're going hat-in-hand. No guarantee at all the Kiwis would take you in.

I was trained in how to stop Sov tank columns and can talk a good game for my side, whichever that is. Can I have a job?

Buy a sack of potatos, let therm grow eyes, cut out the eyes and plant 6 inches apart. Repeat. It's tough to steal since they have to dig them up, and can keep you alive long term. Problem in the north is staying warm.

We're going into rice fields in the Phils if we can to feed the family if we can't.

Buy jewelry?

JM, everyone will have jewelry, figuring they can trade a piece for say...a chicken. Do you know anyone who has a chicken?

[Jon Miller]

I would want though vegetables. I figure when things crash there will be chicken/etc for a while (at least a week or two), during that time you trade your jewelry to get to some place where people have vegatables + chickens.

If I am not settled outside of the country (and I mean, settled), I will take off for Iowa or Oregon (somewhere I have family) and live there. You don't want to be by yourself without support and have the fit hit the shan.

I don't know why so many people say New Zealand because they're already in recession and typically young people leave New Zealand because they have a cronic shortage of jobs.

They have hobbits!

If you did it with a hobbit, would that be considered pedophilia?

That's it. While the rest of the world goes to hell, you live in the Shire and eat sheep. Not too bad, considering.

Heh, heh, I'll bet.

Hey, can I come work for Russia? Twenty years ago I worked as the plant doctor at an ammunition plant. Built during WWII, this plant was busy producing propellent for 3 inch non-guided air-to-air missles. They were state of the art - in 1952. They were used during the Vietnam War - by our allies. At the time I worked there they had been obsolete for more than 20 years, yet because the plant employed people from critical Congressional districts in Virginia and West Virginia the plant was kept opened, continually refreshing the propellant in existing stocks of obsolete ammunition. So you see, I'm well versed in the secrets of the American art of boondoggling. Do you think teh Happy Putin would be interested in acquiring this technology? It's one of the secrets to America's financial success - sharing the wealth by putting people to work on unnecessary military projects is much better than handing out welfare.
