View from the Outside

It's always a good thing to listen to the views of people who have a little distance from a situation. I recently mentioned Mr. Bush's decision to exempt himself from US law. Well, here is one view from Australia. It's hard to imagine a second civil war in the United States, but I would assume that the average American citizen would have said the same thing prior to 1861. My advise is still the same: stay mobile, weed your possessions down to what will fit in a couple suitcases, and learn to live on less than you ever thought possible.
