What Does the New President Mean for Off Grid Living?

donald-trump

President Donald J. Trump is and remains one of the most polarizing political figures in history. Many people believe he will take away their rights and create a more hostile living environment for everyone living in the United States.

With that said, many people voted for Trump and still support his recent policies.

Among the groups of people backing the newly elected President, those who live on the countryside showed an immense amount of support for his campaign.

But what does a Trump presidency mean for people who live off-grid and in more remote areas? Will he benefit those who vote for him?

Here is what one writer from Off-Grid.net had to say about Trump and the future of rural America. You can read about it on the next page.

    Why would anyone think that? He never did a damn thing for Average Joe or Jane in his life. His businesses cater to the wealthy and he rants like an insane dictator when he doesn’t get his way. Prepare for the worst! Cancelling International Treaties, working to close our borders like North Korea did, Tweeting childish crap about other World Leaders… We’re closer to WWIII than we ever have been.

    Really? Doesn’t make sense as to why it wouldn’t. They get paid, you get paid.

    If I wanted to sell hours of my life away to a glorified pimp I would not be trying to live off of the land.

    Saw a report that since comrade trump has been in charge underground bunker sales are up 500%

    The 34,000 people that the Trump family employs would probably disagree with you about him never helping the average Joe or Jane. Funny, I’ve NEVER been hired for a job by a poor man.

    OK, you just went grotesque. I can’t hold a conversation with you. Bye.

    Harley, I don’t know what kind of jobs you’ve had in the past, but if you equate working to earn a living with sucking dicks, maybe you’re the one doing it wrong.

    The downsizing of the government is always good for the average person ,especially if you want to live off the land. Less redundant BS regulations, permits ect.

    Maybe you’re confusing the businessman with the socialist Democrats that lost the election.

    I love your page die hard survivor I learned a lot of great stuff. Trump Just because he wants to make sure American people are safe, and keep bad people out, is that why you want to call him dictator? And at least he does not support criminals like BLM and michael browns. I am immigrant who come here legally, last 8 years under obama administration, all I seen him doing was making North Korea, Cuba, Iran and other countries that hates us making them Stronger while telling our closest allies F-U. Obama made mess in Syria, he pullout our troops from Iraq and make ISIS stronger. I can go on and on, but I know one thing Trump won’t do, he will never call our constitution outdated and try to change it.

    Cancelling international trade deals like the TTP is a good thing for Joe and Jane.

    International trade deals are summed up thusly

    I take:
    The product I want from a slave sourced location.

    Then I take it to:
    A lower income section of what is in theory a first world country, but all the people I brought in to drive wages down means in terms of acceptability its really 2nd or 2.5.

    I then:
    Sell my cut rate, slave sourced product to first world markets, at pruces as though the entire process had spared no expense.

    And to further maximise my personal profits, I:
    Place my corporate offices in whichever country gives me the best tax writeoffs, regardless of where I actually am from or live.

    And finally:
    I spread my money across the globe, funneling it through every step of this process to lose the absolute minimum of it to anything such as taxes, employee benefits, materials, labor or logistics costs, and bank it with whoever will give me the best return on it while keeping it out of the hands of the national governments I explouted through these open ended deals.

    As a matter of fact 3 of the 4 that were interviewed were supporters of the orange baboon, maybe they know something that we don’t.

    Not gonna argue but he will be one of the best presidents of the United States!!!!

    Oh…. Doug, Doug, Doug. One- How in the hell do you know whether Trump “did a damn thing” for the average Joe or Jame? And Two- any way you slice it, Trump was an average citizen just like everyone else, albeit a rich one. He didn’t HAVE to do anything for anyone. Do you believe he was required to give some of his fortune to you? Just because you’re such an awesome guy? Get over yourself. Are we closer to WWIII? Sure but not because of Trump. You have your god- Barack Obama to thank for that.

    Yes and I was responding to all those who was calling trump dictator, trust me none of people who call him dictator knows what that means or lived under one.

    There lots of good stuff trump did or does, but media never reports it because it’s not their objective, trust me trump did more for common folks that obama, Clinton and commie Bernie combined.

    BAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! The government doesn’t make things easier! Trump is just another puppet…

    I hereby declare the human race a disaster of evolution.

  22. Lee Starcher said:

    No they are just scared now just like the Obama haters were. My opinion everyone should be prepared and aware no matter who’s in charge!

    If you are not living off of the land, you are selling yourself one way or another. If you dont think a day laborer is selling his body and being degraded just as much as prostitute you have never done real work. The so called job creators are just parasites. A workers collective can run a company without some fat cat siphoning most of the profit without doing any real work.
