Haven't you people figured out yet that you will never change each others minds about politics?
It doesn't matter anyway. America is doomed. The federal government is heading for bankruptcy and it's already almost too late to stop it. By the time the political will exists to actually try to stop it, it will be too late.
I looked into a crystal ball one night and this is what I saw: Our government borrowing ever increasing amounts of money, not only to pay for internal expenses but also to pay the interest on the debt they already have (this is already happening). As debt increases the interest payments increase. The government borrows more money. The debt increases more. The interest payments increase more. The government and the people who elect our worthy leaders don't have the stomach to reduce government spending.
The downward spiral gets steeper and faster until finally our government is unable to make it's interest payments. At this point nobody will loan them any more money because who would be insane enough to do so? No country is big enough to bail us out or would even if they could. In a desperate attempt to do something the government begins printing more money...lots more...trillions more. The value of the dollar drops to nothing. The economy is destroyed. Chaos reigns.
The United States breaks apart.
At this point things became murky. Perhaps the south and the central states split away to form the new confederacy. The north east becomes a Socialist dictatorship thus ensuring it's third world status. The west coast sees the rise of the lunatics who ban eating animal products, ban modern farming practices for the ideal of fully organic farming, and ban the use of fossil fuels. As a result millions starve to death sitting in their candle lit hovels and haven't even the means to flee as they have no fuel to put in their cars.
I have spoken. Thus it was revealed to me and thus it shall be!
