But denial doesn't change a thing. An economy heading for turmoil is still just that regardless of which side of the fence your political ass may be. If you cant see why the US economy is going to go into a tail spin then you really do have your head in the sand.
dead right AWP, it's just a simple matter of numbers, maths and population demographic

nowt to do with politics.

It isn't my fault you're a moron. You didn't know about the "ethnic cleansing" before you came here? Should I hold you responsable for all the crimes the British Empire committed years ago? Did you know that last year personal bankruptcies in England and Wales skyrocketed almost 25%?

Yes America had slavery, genocide against the indiginous peoples, etc. But Britian did too...Romans against the Celts, Saxons against the Celts, Normans against the Anglo-Saxons, etc. How far back do you want to go?

Fine you're not happy here. But I don't think you'll be happy anywhere with your attitude. I think you'll find your British Avalon is not as rose coloured as you think.

And paganism? What the hell are you talking about? I didn't know Puritans were pagans but I do know they were persecuted in England.

Good luck with your sad life...maybe you should go over to Lebanon and help hezbollah...you probably like them and any other group that hates the US.

Are you suggestion that the Federal Reserve are US Haters? Since I beleive they are the ones that published this information....

"The United States is heading for bankruptcy, according to an extraordinary paper published by one of the key members of the country's central bank."

My response wasn't intended so much about possible bankruptcy of the government. It was directed towards the assinine comments by one member here who is currently in the US and calls it "A nation founded on genocide, ethnic cleansing and by pagans" and apparently finds everything "amusing".

My problem is with the tone of the post not so much the actual information. He obviously hates being here...if his attitude that he has displayed here carries over to his daily work with others (including Americans)..no wonder he's miserable.

He didn't say he was unhappy, miserable or that he hates being here; he's just stating his opinion of the USA.

I can see Mayflower's point although he/she could have made it a bit more "gently".

Lots countries were founded on genocide and ethnic cleansing - it used to be called "empire building", the pagan bit had me confused too.

I also think that millions of people living out their retirement in poverty is nothing to "chuckle" about.

he never said he hated it here.
he never said he is miserable.

you assume too much.

it amuses me that I hear diatribe about being "best country on earth" and "sole superpower" when in reality the Chinese own us and the shit is about to hit the fan with regards everything financial, and if the Petro dollar all of a sudden becomes the Petro Euro, it may happen quite quickly.
