Please help - immediat need

4 years ago

I have decided to run.

I'm not like most people - I think.

I know, all too well, that what most people take for granted is really a system of unfathomably complex infrastructure that allows our "reality" to continue. It is a house of cards.

Everyone wonders why the local and state governments do not put an end to the riots that put our lives at risk, by threatening to destroy the system that supports those lives. The answer is simple: We teeter, on the brink of an all-out, nation-wide race war. The action that is required to end the riots is guaranteed to set it in motion.

It's to late. It's a done deal. It WILL happen, and nothing I can see is able to stop it. It's been a long time, coming. Now, HATE will cause this nation to fall.

I don't intend to be here, when it does. I have little time, indeed, to decide where I and my small family will go.

Vietnam is my first choice because, from what i hear, I can work there and so can my wife. I can't count on my social security to continue - that's for sure!

At age 70 I doubt I would anyone's first choice, as a teacher of english. But I hear that demand exceeds supply... Perhaps I can find work with adults, or older children?

I have been trying to discern the current situation there. I have failed. I don't even know if I can fly into the country!

Will someone familiar with what's going on NOW please help my wife and I to survive?
