I'm going to have to agree with Alarti here; America is not fucked or going to economically implode or anything like that. Fiat currencies are not the devil, they're just a social convention. Obama or Romney, we'll muddle our way through and go all through this hyperbole and antics again four years from now.

America is a 250 year experiment. Democracy has a ton of problems, but every alternative I can think of is worse. We're very selfish and aggressive, we throw way too much shit into landfills, and we seem to be okay with slave labor as long as we don't see it. Our heterogeneous population causes all manner of conflict and tension. I'd still rather live here than anywhere else. If I didn't, I would indeed leave.

The founding fathers hardly matter. They also agreed only white, male land-owners could vote.

Yes, because allowing welfare queens who pop out 1.3 babies per year are clearly the kind of people we want selecting our leaders.
