when I joined up the oil embargo of 1973 had just cost me my job, and my college career. My folks had sold their land and were off traveling and I had to make a hard decision. To your point. It was a tradeoff. And I agree on the guns. I spent plenty of time in northern BC with women who were very competent with their weapons cause they had to be. They didn't replace itty bitty dicks, but that's just me. War game make the 1% rich. But don't get me started. That's a hot button for me.
