May I oversimplify 'Murikas demise and a solution.
1. Our super wealthy elite class sit atop a fucking mountain of wealth. I've heard $55 TRILLION worth of wealth. EVERY FUCKING DIME HOARDED AND REMOVED FROM OUR ECONOMY.

Hoarded from us, the peon class.

2. We have a bankrupt nation approaching $12 Trillion in national debt. A number that many claim is now unpayable.

I give 'Murika less than 6 months before a total collapse of our government. ANARCHY WILL REIGN SUPREME.


I'm only going to hint at a solution.

Hint..

In 2002 Bill Gates' father testified before the Senate Finance Committee on why we need to keep the estate tax AND TAX ACCUMULATED WEALTH ON THE SUPERWEALTHY.

The solution seems too obvious. HR/Pelosi seem to always choose the anti-obvious path.

Will 'Murika ever make the tough choice? The only choice we have left to save this nation from total collapse and anarchy?

I'll believe it when I see it.

Super wealthy greed over country is NOT patriotic.

Government for the people, by the people IS NOT "BIG GOVERNMENT"!

Peace

2. This was meant for general ..
And somehow I posted it under R/T.

Can the thread be moved to general?

Thanks for pointing that out.

Peace

3. Alert on your own thread and ask the mods to move it.

5. Did that rant feel good?
Now... anything sane to discuss?

Worse financial hardship in six months, yes. Anarchy? Especially ALL-CAPS ANARCHY!? REIGNING SUPREME!? Nah, I just don't see us anywhere near that point, not by a long shot. Before you ask me to prove that I'm right, I'd say that you're the one making an extraordinary claim and the burden of proof is on you to prove anarchy is on the way so very quickly, not on me to prove that anarchy isn't coming.
