Straight out of Atlas Shrugged. I guess I'd better check into this before they shut the door on any new political refugees.

"Terrorism, and the widespread belief that President Barack Obama’s progressive agenda is naive, have fueled strong support for Donald Trump in the Redoubt, which has a disproportionately large population of former policemen, firemen and soldiers."

Northern Idaho is one on my list of places to go when I'm ready to move.

I sure wish they wouldn't give it so much attention.

The moment I read the title I knew what place this is about. I know chris the realtor who is driving this. Pretty good gig he has going there. All paid for by social security and public pension money, lol.

Sounds great. Except for that Yellowstone caldera thing.

Meh. If Yellowstone blows, we're all probably F'd anyway.

Don't forget the real "big one" earthquake. Worse than the one predicted to happen along the San Andreas fault line. http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/07/20/the-really-big-one

It's a growing movement around the country like here and here.

There's a lot of people that are also moving to New Hampshire as well because of the "Free State Project".

AssMan · Aug 8, 2016

I don't think that free state project is working out too well. Too many libs from Mass moving there too.

Isn't most of Idaho up wind from Yellowstone. The ash and such will blanket the Western states, mid-Western states and the Eastern seaboard leaving the Pacific Coast unscathed for the most part.

Looks like the Eastern part of Idaho will be severely impacted.

Can't vouch for the scientific accuracy of any predictions but it's a good read:

Apparently, alotta Americans're beginning to separate from (as opposed to assimilate into or assassinate the increasing hoards of zombies on) the sinking ship. :innocent0

Its pretty scary how much this multiculturalism bullcrap is being pushed on us to the point that its somehow bad to wave our own flag and say the pledge because it would somehow "offend" people :sad20:

Go there if you enjoy getting dosed. The Hanford Site is leaking toxic chemicals and TRU waste, including Plutonium. AND there's a huge wildfire not too far away. :tdown:

They can take offense at this...

I would not think it wise to concentrate in one place.

I'll have to consider that :/

Thanks.

Could be part of why I've been seeing some amazing deal on land online.

Yes, that's because we're no longer living in the United States of America that the founders intended or the Constitution was intended to guarantee. The trouble with guarantees is that they're only good as long as the guarantor is there to stand behind it. I think the Second Amendment was Madison's guarantee that The People would become the guarantor after the framers' demise. And it worked for awhile ('til ~18 August 1920).

I'd considered moving there until I read about the high white-supremacist population in Idaho.
