For the past 20 years the U.S. has been shipping all manufacturing overseas. In the name of short-term profits. We were enjoying a fake economy. Basically we kept the whole game afloat by selling fake equities to each other: stocks, bonds, houses, businesses, mortgages, and you name it. Everything was an illusion. People thought they had wealth because a broker sent them a print out. That was why Madoff was able to steal billions. People had been programed to believe lies printed on paper.

And the government still has no idea where all the money went. Billions just vanished into thin air. But the truth that all those billions are overseas. Crooks are toasting our stupidity with Martel cognac and lighting Cuban cigars with $ 100 bills. Our vaunted FBI is next to useless. The FDIC is almost bankrupt. The courts are corrupt. Social Security is going broke. Our politicians are greedy, dishonest, sex crazed alcoholics and ego maniacs. Even our famous two party system is fabulously fake.

And Obama is in Moscow to play buddy games with KGB crooks. I woke up a long time ago. Are you getting the picture yet ______ ?

Don't hold back ex-Texan - tell us how you really feel. ( And the FDIC is almost broke? Ummm, I think that " almost broke" ship has already sailed...)

You are often thought provoking, but man as the old Jerry Reid song goes “When you hot, you hot”. THIS should be on the front page of the Wall Street Journal, but you and I know this will never happen. Somehow, in just a few words
you have obviated the necessity to read over 50 books which attempted to explain (in 500 pages) what you did in under 100 words. Post this on your homepage. Yeah, it is that good!!
