I'm counting on you to set the "live off the grid in my independent compound" standard here

I don't take any FDA drugs unless you count Flintstones chewable vitamins. I buy most of my meat from Sorgs in Darien WI, where they butcher cows, pigs etc. on-site. Unfortunately despite being in business with an unblemished record for five generations, they are still subject to Fed inspections (I'd still shop there w/o them). And when I drive to Chicago it's on 294 (a State TOLLWAY). And as I've said before the government has no business being involved in television either as a regulator or producer. If PBS and NPR can't stand on their own they need to lay down and die. All they are doing is taking up bandwith.

BTW with the rain WI has had the past two weeks the corn will be another bumper crop. Too bad the fed government had nothing to do with it ther than getting in the way.

Yes, those count. You should give those up, to put out of service the FDA who oversees your safety and the quality of the claim you are purchasing, and replace with real food or imported vitamins.

Well, you're encouraging the USDA to exist to protect your food safety. That will have to change. Guess you can slaughter your own? Fish! Oh, wait - the EPA controls the amount of toxins we can dump in your lakes.

Receives federal funds. Guess you'll have to just take 59 south.

You need to stop watching television, as the government helps control the cost. You need to get off the grid, and go to totally private satillite transmissions.

Oh, the affordability of corn is helped by the government.

Looks like everything you benefit from on a daily basis has been helped by your fellow citizens, and the decisions we've made to benefit us all in society.

What a horrible life you suffer from in this country, living off the riches of our mutual societal benefits! If you are going to bitch about 100% of the rest of what this society decides to do as a group for our mutual benefit, I'd think you would need to actively stop benefiting.

You remind me of Michelle Bachmann, railing against the government while she collects farm subsidies, federal funding for her husbands business, and federal campaign funds.

You really are a sucker born on a Holiday w/e.

Yea w/o the federal government I'd be on a dirt road, watching no TV and fishing for my food as Sorgs and all my neighbors would cease growing corn and raising cattle w/o the OK of Obama and his Fed! Drug companies wouldn't be able to develop anything and Dr.'s w/o Fed guidance would be lost.

I don't get a gov. check and don't expect one till probably 70. But then again Ponzi has been taking money every paycheck to buy IOU's in Ponzi treasuries and now 20 years before I can hope to get some Ponzi money, Ponzi is claiming unless he is able to borrow more Ponzi IOU's he won't be able to send out any Ponzi checks this month! I'm not a sucker and was born on a tuesday.

Stop being ignorant on purpose!
