part 1: general vibe & timing
Not to get too political or off-topic here, but I think it's relevant to mention -- if you weren't living in NYC when 9/11 happened you can't really have any idea of how pervasive the after effects were on daily life. Even years later.

...So as the OP added although he's working on it as I am, It sounds easy to tell someone to move when theres no funds available and considering the current economic state of affairs (or should I say raping of the American taxpayers) I don't think I'll be getting a loan anytime in the near future

Do you not see, though, that a one world government would absolutely shoot humanity into an entirely new level of existence? Instead of fighting with ourselves, we can finally explore the cosmos in huge proportions.

One thing I agree with is that you have to make sacrifices and give up everything for your kids. I will disagree with how easy you guys make it sound. When the finances aren't there what can you do. I was married w/kid by 21 and gave up my entire life from that point on then had 2 more kids.

Nothing will happen.
As for being afraid... far from it.
[edit: to add the following]
I don't live with my daughter. She is also some considerable distance from me. As harsh as it sounds my safety comes first. If I found myself in a position to be able to enquire as to her well being and present her with the option of joining me I would, but not if it endangered my existence.
