I fear that economically the US will become another...
Argentina.

It seriously scares the shit out of me!

What is this fool doing to address the record deficits? Can we continue in this path?

Continue this way and we eventually run out of cash and shit will hit the fan just like in Argentina (which thrived in the 1990's) where things went so bad that the hookers were taking IOU's.

51% of the voters chose this dangerous path for the country because banning gay marriage is so fucking important. This sucks!

3. The Canadian dollar is trading at, like, 13-year highs.
Just a couple of years ago it was at an all-time low against the American dollar.

4. But now,
they have only themselves to blame if this fails. They have a president (R), House (R), Senate (R), and soon to be Judicial (majority R). They have a mandate of four years to clean this shit up. Let them fuck it up. It will be tough as hell on us, but we will overcome. They will have no scapegoat this time. Trust me, there will be hell to pay in their party. Mutiny. One can hope.

History will judge as such.

We will overcome this. :kick:

5. Me too MrWiggles
I wonder how much we are into China for now, I know we have been borrowing from them since the war started. I guess it's ok to be an opressive communist regime these days if you have cash to spare...
