Let the pain begin

Wednesday, September 24th, 2008

Our Issue No. 111 is getting to look more prescient each passing day. Average Americans are in for a rough economic ride, with or without the $700 billion bailout Congress is considering. The bailout, I think, will merely postpone the inevitable. I think it should be stopped. Let the pain begin, and let some of these speculators and swindlers lose some of their money too. It will be hard on the rest of us, but the bailout will merely reward the speculators and swindlers, then save the crisis for us to face at a future date.

Here’s a column by Ron Paul that says it better than I can.

Backwoods Home Magazine is not a financial advice magazine, but it didn’t take a genius to see this economic collapse coming as we did with our Issue No. 111. Our job is to help people prepare themselves to get through tough times like we’re about to experience. I hope you’ve all been reading our advice, and I hope you all have acted on the suggestions in our Issue No. 111 and our Emergency Preparedness and Survival Guide.
