How do a person's political views relate to self sufficiency?

How does the outcome of an election all those years ago have anything to do with the original topic?

don't argue just to argue.

Thankl you. Now back to my catching up.

I don't ever think of politics at all when contemplating my SS lifestyle. One has absolutely nothing to do with the other in my life. I chose to live SS because it seems the sensible thing to do and it helps me make my money stretch in many ways, both through normal savings and because I spend less on healthcare when I live this way.

That's what I was trying to say.

Perhaps self-sufficiency doesn't have anything to do with political leanings. Maybe it's an economic reality. Or more of a personal philosophy towards one's view of their role in the world.

Ditto.

I did find that little quiz simplistic but maybe even faily accurate.

Don't you love it when I'm catching up and bringing up old stuff.

Stepping off the soapbox and giving it back to the masses.

And....can you provide specific examples that show the last administration lacked concern for the environment?

You're joking, right?

Nope. I notice you keep dodging the question.

As well as this one:

Was this extreme weather too warm (result of global warming) or too cold (result of global cooling)?

Which "extreme" weather conditions have caused you to not get your crops in?

And.....what man-made influences have caused those extreme conditions that have prevented you from getting your crops in? Global Warming? Global Cooling? Man-made hurricanes?

You have obviously blamed man for those crops still out in the field.....

What can the government do "right now" ? to help you get that crop in?

If I am somehow to blame (albeit a small part) for you not getting your crops in, I really would like to know so I can do something about it.

Scott, I'm not "dodging the question." If you want to start a thread on global warming, climate change or natural weather patterns, feel free. I will pop on over and make my comments.

As for your comments on my husband's near-complete (so far) crop loss, insincere sympathy is just annoying.

Sometimes people are less concerned with trying to make a legitimate point than they are with trying to prove that they are smart and you are dumb.

Best not to take the bait.
