If you read a little closer my repsonse to that poster revolved around the fact that many of our current problems are the result of flawed policies and lack of leadership from those we elected to represent OUR interests, not those of foreign corporations, individuals or govt's......and they are failing us miserably. Soaring debt at all levels, increasing trade deficits, hospitals failing, illegal immigration, border policies that allow terrorists to enter this country at will....these are all the symptoms of a society that's unraveling.

Don't get me wrong, being a small businessman I've always had a lot optimism about our system but now I see fedgov policies that allow some companies in this country to openly break federal law by hiring illegals, break federal tax laws by evading numerous taxes while those of us trying to do it right are nothing but big suckers. How can a nation that supposedly prides itself on operating by "the rule of law" have created such a double standard? Has it dawned on you that we're seeing the greatest corporate welfare scam ever created....imagine owning a business where you can hire illegals, pay them minimal wages knowing full well the their other living expenses will be passed on to the taxpayers? Whatta a heck of deal!

Who's to say we're not currently sowing the seeds for major ethnic conflict down the road by allowing so many people into this country and lavishing numerous welfare style benefits on them with the possiblity of someday having a major economic crisis that could stop these same benefits. (Did you know some we have debt a.k.a. "unfunded liabilities" thats total over 40 TRILLION $ that's conveneiently overlooked by the pols) We'll have literally millions of folks who cannot speak the language, have no job skills, etc. What kind of mood do you think they'll be in then?....some of these cities could easily turn into something could make the LA riots look like picnic. That's what I mean about the incomprehensible lack of foresight about the future ramifications of current policies.

Believe what you wish about where we're headed but I can absolutely guarantee you that anyone who blindly believes that either party at this point in our history has the best interests of the American taxpayer at heart is just too ignorant or arrogant to discern the truth.......and as a result this country will pay a terrible price.
