I must confess, I was brainwashed by the left and the system as a child growing up in the Bay Area and later in Los Angeles. They poisoned me mentally, physically, and spiritually. I’ve since spent the past 7 years recovering from all the damage they did to my body, and soul. In my heart, I always knew something was wrong. The brutal reality is I was raised by communists, fascists, and authoritarians and I am not one of them; I believe in freedom. I was kept from my real Father and bloodline (who I’ve since found), but medical tyranny started long before Covid for me.
I have since awakened, gotten my finances in order (I’m out of debt), taken my physical health back to the best of my ability detoxing their poisons, I’m engaged, and trying for my first child. I’m now training and learning how to exercise my 2A rights, and learning how to use my bug out gear. Society is collapsing here and I need to go somewhere safe to raise a child and ride this out.
I am limited by a lack of physical space, insane inflation, mandates, supply chain issues, and surrounded by enemies. The dehumanization of those of us who have decided to remain pure is unlike anything I’ve witnessed in my lifetime before. I am seriously concerned if I stay I will be forced to defend myself physically sooner rather than later.
By remaining in California it is limiting my ability to prep for what is about to come and know I likely need to escape California and my window to do so is closing fast. My heart wants to stay and fight, but my brain knows it is a lost cause. My home is no longer where I grew up.
My Grandfather escaped tyranny, fled to America, became an American citizen, and was murdered by the nursing home my Uncle put him in. He thought he had escaped tyranny, but didn’t. I am now faced with the same challenge, and realize I too need to escape before it is too late. I will not sacrifice my ability to have children so I can drink in a bar or attend a sporting event. Those things do not matter to me.
My research has lead me to believe I need to basically head East of the Mississippi, of which I have very little experience. The drought on the West Coast is severe, and compounded with Covid and medical tyranny, the potential for extreme fires, and future rationing of clean water it just isn’t rational to stay here anymore.
My intuition is leading me to Tennessee, a state I’ve never even been to, and I do not know why. I’m this close to putting my stuff in a storage pod, getting in my Jeep, and driving East until I find a new home. I just need the courage to do it.
This isn’t so much a conspiracy, but a reality that I no longer feel safe in the state I was born and raised in because the people here no longer believe in freedom and it is just a matter of time before they knock on my door.
What states are going to be safer for what is coming?
I do like this idea. One thing to factor in is the expense of shipping anything in. Some of those countries are resource poor with little made/sourced locally except food. This drives the price of used goods way up. Not surprising since a major component of their economies is agrarian.
Of the 3, Dominica has the most as far as natural resources & industry. They all have sand but Dominica also has clay & potentially copper. Am surprised that none of these countries developed a glass industry since they have plenty of sand. Dominica could do glass and add ceramics & possibly metals. It also is fully energy independent because they have hydro. Energy abundance key for both glass & ceramics. They also use oil & LNG but can get by without it -

Dominica has tremedous potential but seems to have gone slow to increase it. This outline is specific to their agro sector, they barely scratch the surface for what they could do -

But they do have a decent manufacturing base. I looked into Dominica 20 years ago and it was nowhere near this promising. It's key that wherever you go is able to build things. Besides the obvious employment opportunities, factories can modify what they currently make to make other goods. Given enough time they can completely retool and build entirely different goods. In that regard Dominica seems well suited to build upon what it already has -

Have never looked into their political side, i.e. corruption though. Overall however Dominica looks like a winner from the 30,000 feet.
Yeah, I think it is inescapable and always seems to tie back to the police used as enforcers by the politicians. That you can buy your way in also should give pause. You're now marked as someone with loot and high on the list for future looting, er shakedowns. When you make very little, $50 is a lot of cash. Refering to beat cops; it might be like Russia where your daily life if punctuated by paying "tolls".
