 Strategic
Relocation:
North American Guide to Safe Places by Joel Skousen
In today’s bookstores, it’s easy to find information about the "best
places" to live. Such literature undoubtedly will concentrate on the
positive aspects of life, such as numbers and ratings of golf courses,
doctor/patient ratios, warm sunny climates, availability of cultural
activities, status of educational institutions, and the growth potential
of the local economy.
But while these highly-rated metropolitan areas may offer ample
opportunities to enhance your lifestyle, what happens when a major
crisis strikes? What if:
• a labor crisis halts the inflow of food and business goods? Will these
communities provide the basic necessities of life?
• an economic crisis that threatens your pensions, investments and other
so-called "guaranteed" income?
• a major earthquake or other natural disaster suddenly upset the
natural social order for months at a time? Could you get out of harm's
way if massive social unrest erupts in the wake of a crisis?
• the area’s freeways are clogged during an emergency? Do you have
contingency plans to exit the area?
• if the "unthinkable" happens—nuclear war? Or have you thought about
the potential of a major terrorist attack on a U.S. city with chemical
or biological weapons?
It’s easy to dismiss these threats during times of peace and prosperity,
but they are real. Not only that, but the probably of such events coming
to pass increases every year. Strategic Relocation: North American Guide
to Safe Places is an in-depth analysis of North America’s safest places
to live. This book will help you look ahead for potential threats that
most other people fail to see or choose to ignore. It contains a
complete discussion of the strategies and relocation contingencies that
will help you avoid or mitigate each of the major modern threats, from
national disasters to economic collapse to nuclear war.
SOME STATES WITH TAX ADVANTAGES: This doesn't tell the whole tax story
since all states collect a lot of taxes. However, a person whose
financial structure or income structure is different from the average
person can take advantage of this by living in a state which doesn't tax
his particular form of income or spending patterns. There are more
details in my book, "Strategic Relocation."
STATES WITH NO INCOME TAX: Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire (but
has 5% tax on div/int) , So. Dakota, Texas, Washington, Wyoming.
STATES WITH NO SALES TAX: Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire,
Oregon,
STATES WITH NO INCOME OR SALES TAXES, BUT HIGH PROPERTY TAXES: Alaska,
New Hampshire.
STATES WHO SHARE A BORDER WITH NO SALES TAX/NO INCOME TAX STATE: In
these states, you can live in a no income tax state and shop across the
border in a no sales tax state: Washington/Oregon Wyoming/Montana So.
Dakota/Montana.
More . . . much more!
As you can see, it can be rather enjoyable or frustrating doing this
kind of analysis, depending upon where you presently reside. I hope you
will enjoy the entire book, which offers many more areas of interest to
analyze.

 When
Technology Fails by Matthew Stein
A Manual for Self-Reliance & Planetary Survival Softback – 403 pages
Hurricane Katrina, the Tsunami in Asia, and 9/11 really bring it
home.How many of us are prepared for disruptions of this magnitude? How
will you cope if the water stops flowing out of your tap? Or when
gasoline and electricity are unavailable? When the doctors are
overloaded, can you deal with common medical emergencies? In today's
world of super-storms, terrorist acts, "peak oil", global warming,
record breaking floods,severe droughts, rolling blackouts, and
earthquakes, it is likely that most of us will see significant
disruptions in the flow of electricity and goods at some point in our
lives. When Technology Fails can help anyone to prepare and cope with
what may lie ahead.
When Technology Fails is the first to offer, under one cover, basic
instructions and recommended resources for the wide range of skills and
technologies necessary for self-reliant living and achieving mastery of
all kinds of emergency conditions.
A user-friendly "bible" in the tradition of the Whole Earth Catalog,
this book provides information that will help the average person become
more self-reliant. In an era of super- storms, burgeoning population,
massive earth- quakes, global warming, and record-breaking floods and
droughts, more and more people are seeking to prepare themselves to deal
with the difficult times that may lie ahead.
When Technology Fails addresses this universal concern in one engaging
and concise volume for the general reader. A directory of resources and
an instructional guide to sustainable technologies, it outlines survival
strategies for dealing with changes that affect food, water, shelter,
energy, health, communications, and essential goods and services.
When Technology Fails provides something for everyone, from parents who
want to help their families when a disaster strikes, to the go-it-alone
survivalist, to the eco-minded person who wishes to tread more lightly
on the earth—whatever the future may hold.
