Occasionally in the past, I have received emails from readers wondering if it was time to leave America because of some new infringement on our rights.
In the past, I always responded to these emails by saying that it really depended on who the reader was. Anyone, I usually replied, who was in the securities-brokerage industry or the medical profession should start looking, because of how regulated those industries are. If on the other hand, you were a surfer dude just living for the next wave, you had little reason to be concerned.
Things have changed so dramatically in the last 6 to 12 months that I now believe you are being irresponsible ,no matter who you are, if you do not have a bagged packed and are ready to move at a moments notice.
It is not as though there is some new country, or land where the breeze blows lightly 365 days a year, and where there is no government intrusion into your life, but things could get so bad in the United States that many places may start to look like happy alternatives.
The United States is a very rich country with only minor government harassment at this time. For the most part, we all have smart phones, internet connections, wear fashionable clothes and eat decent food. I now believe this situation could change at anytime. Please note: I am not saying it will change but that it could, very quickly.
Folks, we are surrounded. It's no longer the TSA harassing us at airports. It is the TSA showing up announced at a social security office. It is the TSA and unknown black clad government agents showing up at subway and train stations.

I agree 100%. If you are not aware about what is going on then you are being irresposible. The United States basicaly rushed a bill to pass that can strip all American's of any rights. There has to be a reason behind this, our government does not just act on a blind will there are always alterior motives behind what they do. Spet 11th, allows them to basically take over when they want, weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, haha more like barrells upon barrells of oil. There are always other motives for gain behind what our government does.
An ideal form of government is democracy tempered with assassination.

It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets.

As long as people believe in absurdities they will continue to commit atrocities.
