Guy’s probably right although I think the hyperinflation is a few years off. BUT, I think it would be good to quit blaming just the democrats and the liberals. Conservatives and the GOP have had a big hand in making this mess too, to wit:

Tax cuts without spending cuts. NAFTA. All the free trade b*llsh*t which sent jobs overseas. Big over-focus on the rich and big business to the detriment of the country as a whole. Deregulation of Wall Street. etc.

The reason I mention this is that nothing will ever get fixed if we sit around blaming the other guys while ignoring our own role in this mess.

parsy, who is also hurt by the truth

Wise words. I think people have a disconnect and do not realize that treaties like nafta really gave our people the shafta!

Not to mention those treaties erode our sovereignty and frankly they really destroyed our middle class.

Then after all that is the goal to infiltrate from within and take us down. Sick twisted thinking that we should be punished and brought under control like the rest of the third world crap holes!

Exactly. The Republicans are equally complicit in the mess we find ourselves in.....

Parsy,
Why do you think it is a few years off?

I completely agree with you. We ALL need to look at what we've done to get us to this point. BOTH parties (people that we have voted for) have brought us to this. We need a whole new crop of candidates - and we need to get rid of 99% of those currently in office (actually I think a case could be made for them going to prison). We've got a lot of work to do to turn this mess around.

Wow, Commies thrive here as well. Lets shut down world trade. Worked great for Hoover.
