The Seven States Running Out of Water. JWR’s Comment: But consider that watching year-to-year drought conditions give you only the micro view, while monitoring long term the depth of aquifers (water tables) gives you the macro view. (Looking at longer time frame provides better long term planning.) Be sure to study aquifer depletion before choosing a retreat locale!

James C. suggested this piece by Dave Hodges: How Ripe Are the Seeds of Revolution? JWR’s Comment: I must raise a key point: If there is an uprising in these United States (political or otherwise) it will be a counter-revolution. The revolution has already been accomplished.

Now it is time to counter that revolution. Viva la contra!
