An acquaintance and fellow Georgian just moved to France. She and I were acquainted through animal rescue efforts in Georgia. She is bemoaning the election results and the fact that she and her husband will no longer have social security in their old age and are going to have to start saving their pennies, are possibly looking to another home country, possibly Costa Rica. The cut/pasted response below is from a another animal rescue colleague who lives in Florida.

Cut & pasted: "some interesting news is developing, you may not have to leave the USA to escape. It appears Louisiana is preparing to seceed from the Union of the USA. Texas is expected to follow. I've only seen bits and pieces, when I get a credible source I'll keep you posted."

As another Georgian bemoaned.."sometimes I feel...like I been tied to the whippin' post..."
