RE: A Skill like Gardening and Farming Can Get You DRAFTED If Martial Law is Declared and They can Seize Your FOOD!

Thanks for pointing this out @gardengirlcanada. Scary thing for sure. However, I can't help but apply the legal-illegal-all equal view: If the government forces can legally detain you for trying to help yourself, confiscate your property, and force you to share your expertise with them for free, why is it so much worse than if they did it all illegally? I think if marshal law is declared, it will be for reasons that could equally give rise to other (non-governmental) entities who would do the same illegally. Of course I understand under marshal law the suspension of all rights, so then it wouldn't matter any more what used to be legal. We'd be back in thug rule, where everyone and everything is illegal.

What a valid point you present. Thank you for expanding on the nature of this topic.
