Looking at establishing an LLC for the farm and branching out. Still thinking. I've never been anyone that makes moves in a hurry.

Not without justification, I am concerned about what President Psychopath and his merry band of thieves have planned for the FDIC and the Treasury.

So many seem to believe that the status quo is just going to keep puttering along. I'm not sure about that and I'm usually one of the two or three optimists there might in the room these days.

Thanks for your reply, usonian.
