REDOUBT: Government comes home

| September 3, 2016 9:00 PM

On the WaPo’s (aka Washington Post) Aug. 28 article on our panhandle becoming the flee-the-bad-government redoubt region of preppers…

The perverse irony being everyone in the article is a former government employee from California! Which means this redoubt is actually funded with bloated public pension government tax dollars. Your tax dollars.

Gee, I wonder how many prepper types skipped out on income taxes with a sudden disability at retirement?

Or spiked their pensions with manipulated overtime, pushing bloated salaries well into six figure land? Willing participants in the government’s bloated debt. Debt that will cause the collapse.

So per WaPo, the government is actually funding this prepper migration of paranoia?

Awful government indeed.
