You just described heaven to half of America. Hell to the other. Sadly, I believe the "hell" side is the law and order side and I don't think most will fight back, so a CW will be a one sided blood bath except in the rural areas where they will wait for the trouble to come to them, and the gov't will finish them off. As Dandy Don used to sing, turn out the lights, the party's over. I am trying to sell off and move to Alaska, where they cannot take your guns because you truly need them to survive, and there just isn't enough law enforcement to go door to door.

Good luck, be safe! I hope I am wrong about the CW; not happening, but the outcome.

Anyone who thinks "banning guns" is the answer to all of the gun violence, even though 98% of it is perpetrated by criminals with illegally owned guns, while simultaneously saying the jails need to be emptied, is the biggest idiot I can think of, and sadly, that is HALF of AMERICA. They will get what they deserve, but so will the rest of us who knew better. F them ALL.
 
All of Bidens and Kamalas plans need lots of money, and I mean lots and lots. If they starting draining the uber rich, that'll go fast. Didn't France do that a few years back, and alot of people moved? So, what....money reset? I bet on that. I wouldn't be surprised if a monthly basic income check to everyone is started, but after awhile, no one will see the point of working (see Atlas Shrugged). Many don't see the point of working anyway. Welfare benefits have never been cut because it's always argued that it's racist. I know a number of liberals. They are expecting a doubling of minimum wage, free medical, free college, cheap housing, and a basic income for existing. I would think Biden/Kamala would be focusing on raising taxes tremendously, getting money from some of the rich (maybe the ones they don't like), and working these social freebies first, because that is what is expected from their marxist groupies. I'm hoping that the red states will decide that they don't want to be taxed to death, and we go our split ways. I know it's a longshot.
 
At some point the constitution would have to be changed, because none of this is constitutional. That would be a splitting issue as well.
 
Wish in one hand, shit in the other. See which one fills up faster. As usual, Bill put the needle on the record. American elections are going the way of Russia, where the radical progressives will win with 100% of the votes from now on, and their media will tell you how happy everyone is about it. The FBI said the Hunter laptop was real and so was all of the information, and NOTHING happened, even while Trump was the POTUS. NOTHING! The deep state has it ALL locked down. Truly get yourselves prepped.
 
The left will most likely try to finance their insane social welfare programs with new forms of taxation, one that can be levelled at everyone, and not be dodged. So I would expect to see a push for a Cashless society quickly followed by a transaction tax. but something, sell something, pay a bill, move some money, gift some money and with a cashless society they can automatically tax ever transaction at the point it is made.

Which folks like us will inevitably counter with a black market barter system.
 
Well, hey, I thought everyone on here thought Russia was a friend. Ha.

Yep, BillMasen, you are right. We will be taxed to death on things we don't want to pay for. That happened to us a long time ago, and then we won a revolution.
Meanwhile, I can see a barter system that will be growing. Although the government will call it a black market and say it's illegal.

The "rich" dont have nearly enough money to fund these programs. They will HAVE to raise taxes and fees tremendously on everyone, including the 50+% that currently don't pay any taxes.

The Left has already been planing on nationalizing our 401k and IRA's. Take away from us who worked our asses off to prepare for retirement and give it to the bums who never saved a nickel. Minus the governments cut of course.
 
If you own a home, they will raise the property taxes to an insane level. YOU are privileged to be in a home they think. Forget that you worked hard for it. YOU will pay for some alcoholic/junkie/lazy to have a free home, because in their minds, that's equality. They want everyone to be "equal" and don't care that the grasshoppers get a free ride on the ants. Open the borders they shout. Let millions of poor come here and live on your efforts, because that's equality. The poor have finally voted themselves free money;..... YOURS! Prepare for that.

Like the neighbors that live across the street from me. They haven’t worked a day in their lives. They get every public handout you can imagine. Lazy, ambitionless bums.

Equality should be earned not given off the sweaty backs of hard working Americans, as a young kid I was taught that if you want something get up off your butt, go work for it and take pride when you achieve what ever was the goal to start with. When you work for what you have you’ll take more pride in it. A little bit of spine goes a long way. Never in my life did I think USA would end up in this shape.

And the very richest who happen to be Democrats will ensure their wealth is hidden, converted or exported so they pay nothing,I expect see see US wages rise by about 12% over the next four years but the levels of direct and indirect taxation double.. Its been done before in the UK where Council tax doubled in under 9 years in Blairs government.

Ten million south american migrants with no money, no skills and poor health are heading America way, you are going to have to pay for all of them plus the 7 million already in the US that Biden wants to legitimise. Plus Bidens wants to spend more on foreign aid, build millions of public sector houses to give to the welfare sector..

You now exist to fund the lefts social welfare systems, shut up, work harder millions on benefits need your taxes.
 
Without Trump's incentives for small businesses which fueled the pre COVID economy, which in turn funded the government through record tax revenues, I don't see how the economy can withstand the one-two punch of COVID shutdowns and now the assault by the Democrats.
I think the long dreaded economic collapse is nigh.
And the delusional Democrats wholeheartedly believe they can just spend their way out of it.

What you said PLUS the Fed still printing and releasing billions of extra dollars into the market, and the free handout money ($1400?) all devaluating the dollar. the future does look bleak (for all of us) because if the dollar goes down a global crash is inevitable, AND the Yuan and Rubel will surge. The petrodollar could be worthless before long. AND THE LEFTS RESPONSE IS ALWAYS THE SAME

1 Increase taxation on the rich and wealth creators.
2 Raid pensions and saving schemes like your 401Ks
3 Increase purchase and fuel taxes
4 Massively increase welfare spending on their favourite minority groups
5 Line their own pockets
6 Isolate themselves in gated secure communities
7 Buy the Police.

He who has sh1tloads of cached food, fuel, meds, ammo, seeds, potable water and security contingencies SHOULD come through this. BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT remember this. As the left begins to flounder and they get ever more desperate they WILL start to blame Farmers for witholding food supplies, and Horders ( preppers included) for being greedy and taking food they should share the the welfare dependent types.
