Without Land Ch 46

Lisa and Dale Goodwin

Today's show is a little different and I highly recommend that you listen to the audio to get the full effect of the topics discussed but here are the cliff notes.

Without Land Favorite Parts

• Character development and the ability to feel for their circumstances.

• The descriptions made you feel like you are part of the story and causes you to ponder what you would do in a similar circumstance.

• The microcosmic view entrenches you in the story and keeps you wondering what is going on in the world.

2017 Concerns

• The unknown period of time we are in due to the Trump election.

  • This will be a test of theories as Trump implements many of the policies that he was elected on.

  • Will socialist liberal voices be loud enough to drown out conservatives altogether?

  • Will the United States be able to survive with the amount of division we are facing?

• Personal freedom for you means personal freedom for me but comes with a great responsibility.

• American exceptionalism does not mean we are better than the world. It means that we are free to think but we must be aware and responsible for our actions.

• Will socialists remove the electoral college?

• Why would the country choose Trump? The liberal misunderstanding.

• Are Americans living in a vacation or dream world?

• Will Trump drive our debt even higher?

  • Will the change in Washington be a good thing?

• What is fake news?

• Are we as individuals and society headed towards a collapse due to individual and societal overload?

  • Is collapse necessary to fix the problems without turning to socialism?

• Getting involved in your community.

  • Get uncomfortable to make a difference.

• Prospect of a cashless society.

  • Stay vigilant about not letting this happen.

  • You'll be told you don't need cash but the personal liberties lost would be astronomical.

  • It would be even easier to take control of all of your funds.

  • What steps will the powers at be take to keep you on the spending treadmill?

• Are Americans becoming surfs? 

  • Will the new cabinet that Trump appointed really give the government back to teh people or to the corporate elites?

• Are the conservative voices being silenced or are they just too quiet.

  • Social media bullying: Say good things about Trump and you are slaughtered by the liberals. Say bad things about Trump and the conservatives slaughter you.

• UN should not make governing laws to negate the laws of individual nations.

• Modern day slavery should be a focus rather than the sins of the past.

• Are Americans too spoiled to see clearly now-a-days.

  • Have we forgotten our values?

Personal Plans for 2017

• Spring planning

  • Garden planning. What do you want to grow? Do you have a suitable area to do that? Starting to garden now gets you prepared for the ups and downs that every farmer has.

• The State of your State. What can you do to make it a better place?

• Research the Constitutionalist Party 

  • Push for state rights to be returned to the state and give them the power to keep the Federal Government in check.

• Will we ever be at peace as a human race?

  • Only if you can remove greed but you never will.

• Could space exploration be the key to avoiding collapse?
