Due to the impending Trump presidency, i am starting to shift into Urban Survivalist mode. this means being mobile and being able to move at a moments notice when the police tell you that you need pack up your camp to move on. yes we are going to see Trump vills just like hoover vills of the past. republicans have made it clear that the following is going to happen to federal programs for the aged, disabled, and working poor.
1) Privatize Social Security by taking it out of the hands of the federal government and handing it over to wall street,,
2) change the yearly COLA calculations to chained cpi,,
3) Raise the retirement age,,
4) Means test benefits
5) Privatize medicare by taking it out of the hands of the federal government and handing it over to insurance industry in the form of vouchers which will not completely cover the cost of care,,
6) Raise the eligibility age,,
7) Block grant medicaid to the states which maybe won't be too bad in blue states but will be a disaster in red controlled states,,
8) Severely and deeply cut Food Stamps
9) eliminate the section 8 housing program
these are the new republican congress' stated goals and with the up coming debt ceiling they may just get this wish list.
I am going to prepare for homelessness under a Trump presidency due to loss of federal benefits and since my wife is a healthcare worker i am anticipating she will either take a pay cut of up to 1/3 of her current salary or lose her employment all together and be unable to obtain new employment.
with that i will be liquidating everything i own (from diecast model cars, to model trains, to broadcast gear) except for my camping and survivalist gear and some limited portable ham
gear.
I need to get up about $10,000.00 for a rhoadescar quadcycle to allow me and my wife to be mobile with our urban survival gear.
i am looking at the following model with some custom options not featured in the list but rhoadescar is perfectly willing to fabricate.
2 Person Sport Ped
this will allow us to carry our survival gear and personal equipment and be on the move at a moments notice.
yes i am scared i don't know what is going to happen and i am preparing for the worst while still hoping for the best.
