Thank you, and I know that it will only get worse from here as the anti-American Marxists manipulate the brain-damaged Biden into destroying the middle class via inflation and taxation.At this point, the intent, and impending result of this administrations actions, are quite clear. While the is very little we can do about there actions of "upper management", we do still have some control down here in the trenches.
Divesting, and decoupling as much as possible from FedGov is really ones only option for weathering the storm. The more one is in bed with the machine, the more likely one is to get caught up in its gears. The best bet is to murder your tax burden. Do everything lawfully possible to pay as few taxes as possible. Take a very scrutinizing look at one's own personal economy; and use, or develop as many means as possible to control one's own import/export dynamic. This can take many forms but most rely on principles of self sufficiency. Anything you buy from the machine, or its minions; find another source. One of the easiest amongst the imports is food. One can grow much of their own, or pay cash at farmers markets. Same goes with certain building materials. Explore all alternative sources, and deny the beast every possible tax penny you can, at every opportunity that presents itself.
Stop feeding the beast, and it withers. Stop feeding it long enough, and it dies...
I am considering an IRA conversation to ROTH by the end of the year, and having a massive tax bill for 2022 - but then having tax-free money going forward as Biden continues his destruction of the middle class. I didn't do it before because I figured I’d be in a lower tax bracket in retirement, but no…..different scenario.
