You are a sub moronic idiot.
The last time a great republic fell in the West, the World plunged into a four hundred year dictatorship followed by a millennium of Dark Ages. It took hundreds of years for clean water to flow in most cities once again. Dummy.
hahahah your grasp of history is amazing.
We don't have barbarians at the gate we have enemies within the walls and they are in charge. Now either you engage them with armed insurrection OR you let them destroy the Republic. (Break the Federal Money Machine's back)
We are not talking about Goths and Visigoth's storming our shores. We are talking the perpetual debt machine that enslaves citizens. This perpetual debt machine is because of an unholy alliance of the Spenders (Congress) and the Printers (The Fed) they ONLY way to stop the madness is to allow them to crush the debt machine with its own weight or it will never stop.
There is no way to repay the debt we owe. Did you know we now owe more than all the wealth ever produced in the history of the world added together? (When you factor in the unfunded liabilities of Medicare and Social Security and Obamacare and the interest on that debt.)
Add into that fact that we are an Oil Economy AND the oil gets harder and harder to get because what is out there is further and further under the ground. It used to be we had a 1-600 plus ratio of energy harvesting in the oil industry. (that means for every one unit expended your return was 600 units.) As time passes and more and more of the low hanging fruit in oil reserves is used up that ratio drops dramatically now we are getting down under a 1-20 ratio. Its still way better than all other forms of energy as far as the ratio is concerned BUT it means Oil prices will still increase exponentially and there isn't shit ANYONE can do about it.
Add in the debt load and you have a global collapse in the world markets. So we can continue to run your dog and pony show and play games for the TV cameras OR we can take our medicine NOW and get through the heartache so we can start the healing process.
I say let's do it and let the Socialists own it. Then we can toss Socialism on the dung heap and be done with it forever.
