The right answer to Obamacare:

Friends,
Now... here you see that folks like me are NOT JUST PARANOID, or running around like, "Chicken Little" and the sky is falling ! But the prophecies of Jesus in the book of Matthew, also the book of Timothy -- and the 'End Times,' is certainly here. But that is also a GOOD sign. Because of what is said at: Luke: Luke 21:25, King James Version (KJV) And there shall be ...

Luke 21:25, King James Version (KJV) And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress ...
...but we should, instead, lift up our heads, because we then know that our deliverance is near !
So, now I am just guessing, but I think that our 'Prepping' is a good idea, and we do have divine Right to protect ourselves and our loved ones --however, we may be Raptured up before the real SHTF, dear friends. What I am trying to say now, is that, instead of Prepping 24/ 7, we might also try to help other poor Christians with food, clothes, housing... IF we can. Having done some research on the matter, I believe that donating to "Samaritan's Purse" would be a merciful, wise, idea. Also: Bible Tracts, Inc., helps poor Christians in Africa dig wells for pure, clean, drinking water and then also teaches the Bible and love for Christ, etc. But just supporting your local church --- I would really look into exactly where the funds are going, and what their missions are, BEFORE you give your hard earned money. Some churches just don't manage their money well. And please watch and check out any and ALL charities before you give your money !!

For the first time, US appears on list of countries that persecute Christians
“First Time United States has appeared on List of Countries that Persecute Christians,” by Tim Brown, Freedom Outpost, January 5, 2017:
Persecution.org is the website of the Christian organization International Christian Concern (ICC), which “exist[s] to relieve the suffering of the worldwide persecuted church and to act as a bridge between the Western church and their suffering brothers and sisters.” The organization listed for the first time the united States in its list of countries that are persecuting Christians.
In the 10-page ICC 2016 Hall of Shame Report, the united States is list on page 11.
The report begins, “On June 11, 2016, Omar Mateen, a US-based radical Muslim, attacked a gay nightclub in Orlando, killing 49 and injuring 53 more. In a call to 911, he clearly laid out his motivation. The attack was driven by his allegiance to ISIS and desire for retribution for attacks on ISIS. Incredibly, after the attack, numerous high profile media outlets blamed the attacks on what they perceive as the anti-LGBTQ atmosphere that Christians have created.”…
“In short, Christians in the US are facing constant attacks in the media, where they are portrayed as bigoted, racist, sexist, and closeminded,” the report adds. “The characterization in the media may be translating into direct attacks as well. The First Liberty Institute, the largest legal organization in the US dedicated exclusively to protecting religious freedom, documents such actions and reports that attacks on religion doubled between 2012 and 2015.””More importantly, Christians and all religious people are being marginalized through the law,” the report continues. “From the case of a Christian football coach suspended for praying at the 50-yard line, to Christian business owners forced to pay a $135,000 fine for declining to bake a cake for a same-sex wedding, the number of troubling cases directed towards Christians has exploded.”
According to the report Intervarsity Christian Fellowship lost their official recognition of a student organization in 2011 and the Georgia Department of Health terminated Eric Walsh just one week after he was hired because he was a Christian preacher and they didn’t like the content of his sermons in 2014….
The report goes on to state:
Anti-Christian entities have been able to leverage the growing secularization of society and culture to their advantage, utilizing the courts as a preferred venue to gradually marginalize and silence Christians. Using the cudgel of “equality,” secular forces in and out of the courts have worked to create a body of law built from one bad precedent after another. Claims of intolerance and inequality are used to fundamentally distort the clear intent of the First Amendment.
The Founders carefully and deliberately placed religious freedom as the first liberty because it encompasses several fundamental rights including thought, speech, expression, and assembly. The First Amendment explicitly grants freedom of religion, not freedom from religion. The essential aim is to protect the right of citizens to practice religion in the public square.
Decades of accumulated poor judicial decisions and precedents have twisted the First Amendment so that the courts, in defiance of the Founders, are pushing religion out of the public square, and into the small space of private expression. In essence, the courts are deciding that you only have full religious freedom and expression in the church and your home. In the public domain, your religious views and thoughts must be restrained and controlled….
