Can’t argue with you about any of that, you’re absolutely correct.

As to point two though... the commie thing... yea, their governments suck. But look at ours. No reason for optimism here.

I pay attention to the markets and to politics every day of my life. It’s anecdotal, but folks on the ground are saying it’s easier to start a business in China than it is here. Clearly, they’re moving in the right direction while we’re moving in the wrong direction. That can change, sure, but I’m not holding my breath.

Look at the secular trend here. We now live under mob rule, where the federal government rules all. And the mob is growing, both in size and ignorance. The white house now rules the country. Who is going to unseat Obama? Palin? Romney? Please... not a chance.

You’re in banking, right? Well I’m in education. Our educational system is beyond repair, and without a knowledgeable citizenry our democratic republic is doomed. We’re entering a very dark age here in the US.

I do hope I’m wrong about this.

Obama may dream about making us commies, but we're a long way from that.

Exactly, which is why Obamacare passed already. Wait....what?

I'm trying to educate Freepers as fast as I can.
