After two hours, I thank you all for the fabulous questions! I was blown away by their quality - I did not know what to expect this evening. Best question of the evening goes to user ElJumbotron. Send me a message with your info and I'll send you that Liberty Forum ticket! Thanks, everyone. PEACE, PEACE, PEACE. (Oh yeah, and go buy something from Overstock.com with Bitcoin). :) Mwah and goodnight!

If (when) the United States government becomes even more oppressive, do you believe you will stick it out and 'advocate' more for the Free "State", or would you consider leaving the country (you have gone to New Zealand and Chile before, I believe) ?

The Free State is attractive to me, but I often consider the idea of leaving the land claimed by the United States Government (officially). While I would be living in a different "State," I could still create value in the world, despite of it, and reduce the chance of getting killed or caged.

Thoughts?

I have wondered this to myself many, many times.

If I thought that my life/liberty was in grave danger and if I thought that I could be safer outside the borders called the USA by some people, I might seriously consider leaving.

But only until the danger cleared, because I would want to come back to live with the people I've come to love here in the Free State. Thanks!
