Gird your loins, Freepers. This is an economic nuclear detonation which may well relegate this country to the likes of Greece and Italy.
The states will fairly quickly follow over the next year....when the welfare checks fail to be mailed or fail to clear....our city streets will swell with malcontents and those requiring of the producers of this country that they pay for their needs.
This nation shall be in travail, with leadership without a clue how to deal with this mess. Their menu of choices, by definition, is filled with only wrong choices. It cannot fathom the idea of free market ideals creating the truth of profit for success and the failure of those individuals who fail to do so. Therefore
They will get out of this the way they always have: get into a scape somewhere, start the draft, cull the herd, and cancel debts.
The world will be a very different place in 2020.
