“A family man in America’s condition, awash in debt, spending more than he makes, would cut back consumption, find a second job and get out of debt. Or declare bankruptcy, accept the shame and humiliation, change his wastrel ways and start anew.
Is it different for a nation? “
Pat Buchanan

Hold your nose I think we’re going under. Just a matter of when.

Ron;
Sometimes I wonder where did we go wrong? We always bought houses we could afford, paid for them before we moved up, didn’t run up big credit card bills, and paid our bills. Now every who didn’t gets bailed out, what do we get, nothing, we get to pay their bills.
If this country could have learned to live on Bible principals we wouldn’t be in this fix.
