Lets face it: Most of the sequestered funds are bankster payouts and crony capitalist congressional payoffs.   The budget will INCREASE 7% over last year.  Some budget cut.  What was ADDITIONALLY intended to be spent (indebted!) will be sequestered until such time as CONgress votes it to be spent (borrowed, printed, indebted, taxed) and retroactively pays off all the furloed nonworking tit suckers.

We, the little people, need to get it through out heads that things are not going to get better by themselves, especially with Government trying to make things worse. In the Great Depression, when people finally realized this fact, what did they do? They formed co-ops, where they all worked together, without money, each person applying his skills to help everyone in the co-op, and to be helped in turn by everyone else.

Co-ops are still around. Google "co-op."

Did you notice the TRUST article at

http://www.freedomsphoenix.com/News/129316-2013-02-25-trusts-offer-a-legal-loophole-for-buying-restricted-guns.htm?

The title of the article suggests that trusts use legal loopholes. That's not completely correct. Part of the trust thing is that trusts are contracts, and Article 1 Section 10 makes it difficult for Government to mess with contracts. Over-regulating trusts by Government is an illegal loophole.

The point is, make the co-op in trust form. Do it right, and get around a lot of the Government regulation that is making it hard to live. Form your co-op like this, and work together to rebuild. Without Government over-regulation and peoples' selfishness, there is no room for failure, and no need for FEMA.
