These same economists are saying don’t worry about inflation here at home and don’t worry about the job market that people are avoiding and don’t worry about your 401k that dropped 25% and don’t worry about higher gas and energy prices, everything’s good in Brandon’s America.

Nihilism believes it’s message over reality.

Even so I am an optimist by nature I have some serious doubt as I have a feeling the US is heading down the same path as Argentina where poor politics, corruption and graft has gotten the best of them and this cycle is not easily broken, as it is part of a mind set which took years to develop. The chains of habits are too weak to be felt until they become too strong to be broken!

For curiosity sake the current rate of inflation in Argentina is around 70 % and shows no sign of slowing, in other words they have not gotten their act together yet and neither has the US.

Even if we elect a president who may have the right ideas for attempting to get this country back onto the right track it only may slow the descent on to the trash heap of history of a once great country. So far there has been no known great country in history which has escaped this cycle
