Those that can grow things can trade with others ! Your right !

I can fix almost anything . And others can cook , others can find something of value, I found it interesting that rabbits provide more meat then steers !

There’s a lot we can do.!

Rabbits keep attacking my garden. You can bet I'll be making a lot of rabbit pie and rabbit hotdish this winter! And sharing it with my friends and family!

Yes! It's time to go find your people. And if you assemble and need a bird's eye perspective, I promise you: I will answer the call and help. We must free ourselves.

It's often overlooked that the Gettysburg Address is one long metaphor for the birth of our country ("Fathers," "conceived"); it's inevitable death ("Four score and seven years ago" is an allusion to a Biblical passage saying that an expected lifetime is 70 years, 80 max); and then its potential to be reborn something greater ("new birth of freedom"). That gives me some amount of hope for today. As Jonathan Last has written in the Bulwark, the American empire, so to speak, is now dead...but maybe, just maybe, it can be reborn...
