We'll fall apart just like the Dutch did, too. They screwed themselves up so thoroughly most people don't even know what a powerhouse they once were.

It's things like this that get me involved in inane threads where people are insulting others for saying that history repeats itself.

Another crazy measure is the types of vehicles people drive; you just know they're struggling with whopper payments and certainly didn't actually BUY the damned things.

Sigh.
