Im a broke woman with chronic health problems in a red state who may be homeless soon and who sure as hell can't afford to leave and go somewhere better. I guess I'll just keep trudging along and hope that somehow we're all being hysterical and things won't actually get that bad but if they do and if I lose what little social assistance I have I guess I'll just tap out and call it a life, ya know?
Easy, just pull yourself up by your bootstraps. Duh. I don't understand why you haven't done it already. I kid. But seriously. I hope you get the help you need.
Have you considered to sell everything and be homeless hopping freight trains to leave the area? Or how expensive woulf a greyhound to another are be? Not trying to be mean, just have a hard time imagining being in your position.
I’m really surprised the right isn’t more concerned people in your condition will look at their choices, their right to firearms, and decide if they’re going down, they’re taking legislators with them. That’s a serious concern when people are desperate.
You'll buy food before ammo, and they know it.
