[Bob Seger]

Old School, did you happen to click on the " Kiss America Goodbye " box? If he is right about ANY of his predictions America will be toast by next election cycle. As I suspected, the one thing that really has brought on the so called Arab Spring and gave demonstrators the courage to suddenly take to the streets and even fight against the government military forces in civil war is HUNGER. Is it possible that quiet American residential neighborhoods could go from friendly faces cutting grass and washing cars to makeshift gun turrets as John Q Public is forced to defend his family and home from looters rampaging through the streets? It's more than possible. If ever it comes to the point when the government checks stop coming to 2nd and 3rd generation welfare recipients I believe it will happen. When people start getting hungry they will do anything to get food. America is walking in the footsteps of the Weimar Republic. The Fed has quietly printed so much money US financial destruction is practically a given. Obama could care less, so desperate is he to keep his voting base together until the election of 2012 he is more than willing to take down the United States in his bid for reelection. Instead of allowing House Republicans to pass legislation that would have balanced the budget in 6 years he spearheaded blocking manuevers through his puppet in the Senate, (Harry Reid) who demanded we INCREASE our spending from 10.5 trillion when Obama took office to an unbelievable 25 trillion over the course of the next 7 years. Republicans tried to get them to hold spending at present levels until we get things turned around but, that wasn't good enough for Obama to buy votes and ensure the common folk will in fact loose everything they have including pensions and social security.

I mean, leave politics out of it. Numbers don't lie, we will never be able to pay back 25 trillion dollars in debt. It's just like a credit card. It takes 33 years to pay off a 5,000 dollar credit card making the minimum payment.

And their drugs.
