And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Excellent point. Imagine grabbing your .22 every day and going for squirrel or grouse, and the 25 06 for deer, or the 12 gauge for turkey. That would be heaven.
Corn is cheap at roadside farm stands. How much would you need to run a profitable still, and would the money you made be enough to pay property taxes?
Aside: My maternal grandfather ran a still in the midwest back in the day. He was run out of business by some other, meaner moonshiners that threatened his life during a short, involuntary car ride.
You can't really live without a hammock.

DeleteOnly thing missing is a good ole moonshine still.
ReplyDeleteIf you're going to run a still, you also need a cornfield.
