8. Yes, it's like cutting our noses off to spite our face..
This corrupt system must fall before it can be rebuilt. Like it or not, sooner or later, it's gonna happen.

They tell us we're a consumer economy. We don't really produce much outside of services. But a consumer economy is a spending economy. We keep things going by spending with borrowed money. It's unsustainable. It's a fantasy. Paying Visa with Master card.

Let it fall so that we may rebuild.

Maybe next time when we stimulate corporate growth we might add some pesky add-ons like, if you want a tax break, you must create jobs in this country. Or,,, how bout, since your manufacturing is overseas, time for you guys to pack up your head-quarters and families and move to China.

It like like a termite infested, 1/2 dead tree.
