I have a miner in Washington State who offered to give us news about what is happening there. I think it is best to work out the bugs on a more local scale and then expand once the wrinkles are ironed out. But that is just my $0.02 worth. I'm not so sure how we are going to do all of California, let alone on a national scale. If you want to help out, contact me on the site and we can see what you are willing to do in your state.
Normally I'd agree with you.
But the locals had enough time to get things going and it has never happened. It's been going on forever and bupkis. I am not trying to knock the efforts of the people that have been working hard to get things accomplish I applaud them for hanging in there this long.
However it is not working and sooner or later you have to realize this and move on and try something new.
Now is the time.
Look at the NRA and what they accomplish, they realized a long time ago that they need a voice on the national level, to get thing accomplished.
What the miners are doing is simply not working everyday we loose a little ground that we never get back, I think it is time to change tactics and move along. Or loose it all. This is the reality of it, will your sons and grand sons, and daughters be able to do this or is it going to be a part of history, that people talk about the "good ole days".
Personally I think it is time for asses and elbows, or poof.
