Definitely, the party is over.

I think there are many things that Obama could have done better - that said, given he was handed the wheel after the car was driven off the cliff, I think he also did surprisingly well.

We are living in a different world. The party wagon is over and our life will depend on our creativity and adaptability.

I agree. We have to look at a lot of things in a different way than ever before.

Economy added jobs, dividends weren't cut, people aren't selling their houses which gives them stronger ties in their neighborhood.

But, if we're lining up people to tar and feather, I'd sooner go after the Fed and congress.

Yep. They can all just get in line for the tar & feather brush...Agreed...

I could probably make it 4 years without working provided money is still worth anything (not working now, but you know will probably look for something - whether I'll find I have no idea). I really don't know what else I could do. I don't have some magic to perform that would make me invincible. I don't even necessarily want to be invincible if it means permanently living the rest of my days in some isolated cabin in the woods (not that there's anything wrong with that). I try to be educated, aware, etc..

I do strongly believe in building community and will give it my efforts. Community for dealing with hardship and crisis (if SHTF we need to turn TO and not AGAINST each other), for power, for resilience, and last but far from least because it's the life worth living.

Oh and yes please, lets tar and feather the FED!!!!

>>>living the rest of my days in some isolated cabin in the woods

That's where I live. It has its advantages.

I don't know. A "this time is different and we're doomed to penury" panic makes the contrarian in me want to sniff around for buying opportunities.

HMMM...a capitalist Ldahl? me like.
