There is almost nothing I can read about in CA that would surprise me at this point. The people that remain i guess want this sort of government intervention and that cool, im glad to be in GA. It's amazing to me that anyone can look at anything the government says at this point and take any of it seriously. 

All of these sort of policies and approaches will happen in the usual suspected areas. People will end up leaving, and other people will martyr themselves in the name of "saving the whatever is trendy today".

The power grid is struggling to keep up as it is now, and without major investment in what will probably need to be nuclear plants simply no way to run this new all electric fantasy world people are talking about.

These decisions will show to be poor ones in the years ahead, but instead of making the right changes government will double down. As someone that grew up in MA and escaped shortly after turning 21 for the south i just hope the people that come don't try to push this same agenda here. 

During an inflationary period owning hard assets is one of the best ways to offset the inflationary cycle. Rates will go up but your mortgage with a fixed rate mortgage will stay the same. So owning property is a good idea if you believe we are going into an inflationary period.

My in laws live in Park City, (actually just outside in hideout) we looked into it pretty heavily and it's really hard to make the numbers work up there in my opinion. 

If you have a property paid off, make sure you have a good umbrella policy, and toss property in an LLC. Thats it, i'm not sure why people spend so much time on these fairly obscure scenario's. The two things above should take take a handful of hours.

The closest Costco to Western NC is 2 hours away. Target is almost 3 hours. In that area i'd either be ordering from Amazon or going to walmart. Walmart actually has some nicer end linen lines and many people have had success with them. There are a few places over the mountains in Eastern TN where you can buy wholesale linens as well. I recognize you can drive in the linens from Costco or Target but me personally i dont like my towels to be mismatched after utilizing them and restocking them so i dont want to always by and ship in or drive in. There are always close walmarts and Amazon ships anywhere. This keeps things consistent. There are multiple airbnb stocking lists on Amazon too. Might want to check those out. Curious what part of WNC you are in specifically.
