I couldn’t agree more with this statement. AR’s are AR’s and Palmeto runs just as well as the big name AR’s. So many people over spend on a base AR and then spend just as much replacing everything on the AR with after market parts. At that point you should have just built an AR vs bought one.

I feel like this verse is very relevant to this conversation. Good post.
-
I enjoyed this reply. Thank you. Sometimes the best advice to follow is that we are not in control of anything more than our reaction to what is around us.
-
One of my favorite commentators, Michael Malice, says this: “Conservatives are simply progressives driving the speed limit”. And he is right. I agree with you that a red wave will likely be far more counterproductive than productive for the very reasons you list.
-
I love this reply buddy. And I agree that a red wave will be of little practical significance. The fix to the problem isn’t government and voting. It will be individualism, true free market capitalism, faith and community. A combination of these things is what we had coming out of the Great Depression, and it was that combination that propelled us to becoming the greatest economy the world had ever seen.
The catch is that becoming great almost always leads to laziness as greatness ushers in comfort. I don’t know that there is a way to combat that as mankind tends to seek out the path of least resistance.
All I know is that I am setting up myself, my family and my group to thrive in ways others will only dream about. I certainly believe that it shouldn’t just be the dirty bankers who succeed on crisis.

I love this response for one primary reason. I too believe that no matter how dark things become, we MUST look at things through the lens of opportunity. I fully believe that a free market approach to the incoming crisis will help many survive and thrive in it. I don’t see it as doom and gloom to acknowledge the state of the world and read the writing on the wall. That’s just due diligence.
-
A most excellent response. I agree that in spite of the best efforts of evil men, we do ourselves the most favor by learning to live outside of their control as much as possible. Chickens and a 4-season garden are my goals for 2023 as well.

Unfortunately, all forms of modern economic commerce require credit, or as it is more aptly called, usury. The practice of borrowing and finding investors isn’t such a bad thing, honestly most small businesses would never even start if it wasn’t for borrowing and investing. But what we have in the west is no longer a system of borrow and repay at a modest interest rate. Now we have monopolies that dictate rates and percentages and even penalties in a way that the common man has no control or say over.

This is a very real possibility. I do consulting for EMP Shield as one of my lines of income, and that puts me in many ways on the front lines of knowledge on current events both known to the public and not known to the public.
Space has been weaponized and is now openly talked about in such terms regardless of international treaties that forbid the weaponization of space.
Iran, NK, China, Russia, and the US have weaponized satellites and abilities in space including super EMP weapons.
-
I agree with this. Government always, no exceptions, makes things worse. Even things they do that seem to help initially come at a very high cost. The NWO certainly has multiple think tanks that work in unison to craft policy that is written by corporate lobbyists and then presented to politicians on the dole. All that “redress of grievances” that was meant to give men the ability to lobby government has become bastardaized as corporations are granted the same entity status as an individual.

I dunno, maybe slaves and indentured servants traveled every bit as much…just not in luxury. Hahaha
-
I would ask that you don’t shut up and that you join the conversation all you want! This is a free speech zone and you are welcome to opine at your pleasure!
Thanks for commenting and being part of the Spags Unfiltered community!

Very possible. Ya know….22 to the back of the head…twice, and called a suicide.

The over dependance on international trade, and the outsourcing of production due to the many factors like over regulation, taxation, labor laws etc that affect the cost of production, are to blame for lots of this. I agree there is an ethical way to conduct free trade. Capitalism isn’t corporatism although in the US those two terms have become synonymous.

Appreciate that! And thanks for being part of this conversation. Hopefully it continues and is a great discussion for days to come!
