GMAC To Get 3.8 Billion More

[Excaliber]

For clairification here is my quote on the the farm topic.

This country is not going back to "farming", our industrial base, frankly, may not be big enough to save us this time. Even given a decade or more, were in for a permanent change of some kind, in my opinion.

Ag Industry? Nothing as grandiose as that. I'm talking about a time when just ordinary folk had a large garden, did some canning, milked some cows, raised some chickens, as a large part of their "living", like Grampa. A time when the bullk of the country lived like that, before "Big Ag".

Were not going back to that "time frame" on any kind of large scale. The people are counting on "Big Ag" and "Big Corp" to provide for us. What if the Government SO screws them up they can't? In terms of economic collapse that may not be able to provide for us, it could get real ugly. Those few who DO return to a "farm like" lifestyle may well be looked on as prosperous, smart, able to fend for themselves. The new "wealthy".

I'm not a survivalist type, but maybe, their onto something! I have ten acres of raw land I DON'T care to live on, it's "raw". It's cold and muddy and it snows there, yuck. I like my little warm house and the supermarket down the road. But, I think I'll keep my 10 acres in the woods,,, just in case.
