re: #178 Vicious Babushka

All these wingnuts who talk about “Going Galt” PLEASE DO IT ALREADY.

There was a quote in the paper from a lady who supported the 51st State initiative here in Colorado - she might have been one of the county commissioners. She was excited that her kids might get to grow up in a state based on ‘self-reliance’ like ‘living in the 1800s’.

I don’t think she has any clue how tough that was.

Why someone would want to romanticize a time when freezing to death was not an uncommon way to die is beyond me.
