I honestly don’t think it matters one way or the other. It’s too late. Seriously.
At least, that is my take. The problem is that NONE of the fixes can be voluntarily implemented. I used to use this analogy back in the late 1970’s: The US is like the proverbial farmer that has his hand caught in a piece of machinery that is slowly dragging him in. He will only survive by cutting off his arm. However, nobody has the political will to cut off the arm - nor would they survive politically (look at what is happening to Cruz).
And back then we would have only had to lose a hand. It’s past the shoulder now.
I don’t expect us to survive Obama - or obamacare.
Unfortunately I’m leaning in that direction as well. It’s not looking good for my children’s future right now.
