It took almost 200 years to build our great republic, THE REPUBLIC OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, and it took only 8 years to destroy the beacon of free world (8 years of Bill Clinton)
I'm no fan of Clinton, but how exactly is it his fault that the dollar is weak?
Hah, in 1916 Woodrow Wilson said "My God, what have I done. I have doomed this republic by putting all the power in the hands of only a few men." This was in reference to the Bank Reform laws he signed in 1913.
The "Experiment" was over along time ago. Read up on what was happening back in Jacksons day and things will become clear. Clinton, as much as I despise the parasite had nothing to do with it. It is much deeper than anything we can see at the Executive level.
