I hate to say this, but I think the best word to describe our nation right now is, “Cratering”.

I pray to God that this turns around in 2016. Sadly, I’m not even bothering to hold my breath.

The American public have got to want it. I’m not convinced they have the collective IQ to feel the need.

They can have Miller and Pabst as far as I’m concerned. We should have given them away a long time ago.

I can only see this as a continuation of a trend of major US companies being purchased by foreign companies. It does not speak well for the health of the nation’s economy.

Perhaps this is an instance of Russian investors trying to invest profits overseas in light of Putin’s adventurism and tightening political grip at home.

I would say that they have to be willing to give it up. Namely the so called safety net.

For this country to turn it around we have to go back to the country’s tradition of self-sufficiency. The people of this country have to be willing to tell the pigs at the welfare feeding trough to go get their own.

All of these people that are taking way more than they are putting in have got to be made to pay their own way.

Forty-seven percent of the population can not support fifty-three percent. It simply can not be done.

We have to put limits on Welfare program. Obama illegally stopped the limits put in place during Clinton’s administration. It must be reinstated.

And they're not going to want it until a serious keyster kicking is administered. Something beyond taking away the 0bamaphone.
