The lesser of 2 evils is still evil. Time to vote for some actually really needed good for a change. Yes, there is no perfect... but saying it's OK to vote for a big government loving, Constitution trashing, budget busting RINO is no longer an option for me. Sorry.

Buy gold, silver, food, some guns & ammo (when available). If you can afford it & can work the land (or lease it out to someone that can work it) to pay the taxes, buy good farmland. Non-agricultural business in the USA has been crippled with taxes, regulations and a combination of an unstable banking system, manipulated Stock & Commodity Markets plus a collapsing paper US Dollar.

I wouldn't call giving flawed Sanford a win being something good for the Republicans. The fact that Sanford was supposedly the best the GOP could come up with shows how rotten the GOP has become & can't be trusted. We desperately need a viable 3rd Party alternative to the duopoly of corrupt Ds & Rs.

"The GOP's Death Spiral Continues: Bring It Back With Unflinching Moral Courage" - Yes, and the GOP deserves it!! Not because they are "worse" than the Democrats, but because, like the Democrats, they are just the opposite side of the same corrupt big government coin, just a slightly different flavor. From now on, unless a GOP candidate is clearly for a small, Constitutional government with sound money & a balanced budget, I'll be voting 3rd Party. That means I made mistakes in voting GOP many times in the past!!

I'll second that! :)

"Will Tyranny Ever Come to America?" -Ummm... wake up!! Tyranny is already here!!!

This "Marketplace Fairness Act" may prompt internet sales businesses out of high tax states to low tax states & maybe even offshore. Nobody thinks of this. They just assume that as taxes go up, revenue for government will go up. They don't learn from their mistakes in the past when as taxes & regulations went up, businesses moved out & taxes collected went down. In the end, it looks like our government will go bust & our paper money will be worthless. So much for the benefits of "big government".

Buy more PHYSICAL gold & silver on any dips & store it someplace safe (NOT IN A BANK SAFETY DEPOSIT BOX). Keep only enough paper US Dollars in the bank to pay bills. Anything you own on paper is worth only the paper it's printed on.

"... Gov. Nikki Haley said that South Carolina does not want and cannot afford the president’s plan, “not now, not ever.” " -My opinion of Nikki Haley went dramatically down when she came out fairly early to support big government loving RINO Romney in the GOP Primaries. With her present tough stand against ObamaCare, my opinion of her is beginning to recover a bit.

"Maxine Waters Set to Run Finance if Dems Win House in '14" -Madness. Have you ever listened to this woman speak? Evidence for very low information voters who keep re-electing her.

That won't solve the big government loving, Constitution trashing problem the USA has today with the Ds & Establishment Rs in office. They are just 2 sides of the same rotten coin. They want us to trade our liberty for security. They don't want sound money. They don't want to balance the budget soon & start to pay down the debt. They want slightly different versions of the non-sustainable welfare/warfare/police state we have turned into. Our Republic & Constitution are either dead or on life support.
