Always Right 23.

To me “abandoning ship” does not mean digging yourself a bunker in the New Jersy Pine Barrens or buying property north of Winnipeg but rather refusing to be the Cow that the Socialists like to milk and the Communists like to slaughter.

How one does that varies with your situation, but I am sure it means not investing any more in the stock market, making sure you have a safe place to go, saving money (or gold) and defering purchases, stocking up on food and/or ammo, etc. None of those are bad things to do even if the economic forecast was sweetness and light for as far as the eye can see and we were all producing musical farts that played “Zippedy Do Dah.”

And get organized. Not a bad thing at any time, either.
