"The top 1% is buying up all the real estate.”

[freshwest]

24. Yep. And there was a WSJ article some years back that told the 1% to go into survivalist mode.

Suggested buying large properties, building large homes, get land with water, stock up on seeds, farm implements, animals, all they could for self-sufficient living, with some laborers to live on the property. Most likely the kind of labor that is hypnotized by religion. Also, it suggested they buy ammo.

I wish I could find the article, but since Scroogle is no more, it's hard to get full search results. The article wasn't that far off from the conspiracy buffs. There is a lot of this on the net; teabaggers love this stuff, but they're not the only 'back to the land' types. But then, since the one-per-centers have been working so hard on implementing feudalistic societal mores, why not have the estate and peasants to go with it?

The world doesn't have to take this road, but it may.
