If its bankrupt now, what will it be after Obamacare is passed?
Yet the American folk still love their Black Messiah! Dear God in Heaven Lord Jesus, please forgive us our trespasses and heal our land. Remove this diabolical evil man from the WH! And save our children from this demon!
Who knew? ;-)
In 2007, Dr. Hudson was Chief Economic Policy Adviser
for the Kucinich for President campaign.
He is now writing a new tax policy for the United States.
“...and moral renewal, which an array of proto-fascists, from the Christian right to the goons who disseminate hate talk on Fox News, will assure the country they will impose.”
What kind of crap are you posting here????
I’ve long said “A coup is going on” and we victims are like the frog thrown into cool water over a burner set on high.
Wow ! Right from the pages of Pravda !!
The Clinton-Bush dollar exporting trade deals have come home to roost.
Obama plans to supervise US global financial firms according to Drudge right now. Can it be done competently? No. No better than the Chicago political apparatus could supervise or better than the Fed Reserve and Treasury have functioned at present with no intent or desire to account, disclose over $10 trillion of activities in the last year. With the whole world not disclosing its true status financially, how will Obamas control have any special credibility or effectiveness for the US? Essentially, global US financial institutions all disappear into a black bag.
“There are meetings being held Monday and Tuesday in Yekaterinburg, Russia, (formerly Sverdlovsk) among Chinese President Hu Jintao, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and other top officials of the six-nation Shanghai Cooperation Organization. The United States, which asked to attend, was denied admittance. “
If the MSM wasn’t too busy wanking Obama off, they might report this as news.
I seem to remember this lying sack of dog mess putting out an obnoxious screed about the “religious right” and how dangerous it was a couple of years ago.
He may be correct in what he says this time, but I don’t trust him.
Perhaps. But probably not. Not minimizing the difficulties to come, but those problems are due primarily to mental/cultural issues, and those tend to get straightened out by difficult times.
Mental issues aside, the US still has those essentials for global power.
To begin with, we have one hell of a great location. We're not going to be invaded by anybody, and our culture can therefore address its issues relatively unmolested.
Next, we have a large and sophisticated population which can (and most likely will) reassert itself as a result of the difficulties.
Third, despite all those dark mutterings of "revolution," and chaos to come, and all that, we are a politically stable nation, and are likely to remain so.
Fourth, we have incredibly vast resources in minerals, energy, arable land, timber, and pretty much everything else. It is impossible to overemphasize the importance of those resources and the wealth they represent.
I suppose Mr. Hedges enjoyed writing his article, but it's based on that huge false assumption. It's just no convincing.
What, Chris Hedges is doing satire now? Who knew?
First the Interdependency immoral mantra will fall appart with China saying screw that. Then the MAD doctrine of military interdependency will fall appart.
Interesting a communist progressist antiAmerican screed trashes Obama. Liberals are losers of a loser world.
America has been bankrupt since 1933.What’s new?
I don't believe the housing numbers that came out - I suspect the rest of the world doesn't either.
And we ly here asleep!
I think this guy is one fry short of a happy meal.
If the dollar is no longer to be used, how are we to buy cheap plastic crap from China? What are Japan and China (2nd&3rd largest economies in the world) going to use to buy their imported oil? Yen? Euros?
Most Oil exporters only except dollars, and with the American liberation of Iraq and Kuwait, our close ties with Saudia Arabia, plus all of North American oil, all priced in dollars....well that alone creates enough demand for the dollar to keep it viable until the world no longer values oil.
