The US government will spend and take in more this year than last year.

This nation would be a lot better off if its voters had first grade math skills. Unfortunately, most of them do not.

False, they have first grade math skills, they just choose to lose to the magic shiny picture box in the living room rather than take the time to see what is actually going on.

I love how you cried about gay people and drugs while voting for 2 parties which have both consistently contributed to unsustainable spending and a debt which is going to absolutely collapse the American economy and standard of living for the past 50+ years.

Hey, if you're too lazy to understand the harm you've done, you're innocent... Right?

Yes, lying about how usage rates barely change when they change at all when you stop empowering drug lords and criminalizing everyone you can catch smoking pot (which is more than half your population) is totally an excuse to irresponsibly rape the economy because you don't give a shit about future generations! You totally countered my argument that Democrat and Republican voters have been shafting our country for decades!

I can appreciate that you've been scared into believing that, without drug laws, you would become a drug-addicted miscreant. But this in no way whatsoever disputes anything I've said regarding the consistently pathetic fiscal irresponsibility of Republicans for decades.

The damage done is indisputable. That's why you change the topic. The fact is, Republicans have betrayed this country, regardless of the relative betrayal of Democrats. None among them has stood up for responsible government for decades.

Out debt is already unsustainable. Were it not for our control of interest rates, we would already be unable to afford the interest on our debt at free market rates. This control of interest rates is dependent upon the dollar being the reserve currency of the world. And the dollar's dominance is failing, as more and more countries make trade agreements to trade oil without it and openly voice their intentions to move away from it as their reserve currency. Saddam and Qaddafi spoke of such intent. Lucky coincidence that our leaders needed to wage wars to remove them from power.

In any event, the dollar will obviously not remain the reserve currency of the globe forever. More and more nations move away from using it to trade oil, and more nations openly move away from hold it as their reserve currency. As our debt becomes more and more ridiculous in relation to our GDP, more nations move away from the dollar which they know will be inflated as a part of repaying that debt.

Massive damage has been done. And Republicans have contributed to it. They contributed to the debt and actively supported the dumbing down and feminization of our entire nation, resulting in less and less educated and virtuous men and women with the will and capacity to defend our nation.

It's easy to blame consultants or "the other party." It's more difficult to learn about and educate your children on history and basic monetary policy. And more difficult still to defend Republicans' innocence in the coming collapse.

Yeah, I'm sure that's it. Not the money and media herding ignorant sheep who lack culture.

I'm sure it's drug laws which keep the American people voting Republican and Democrat despite the coming collapse. I'm sure they're all educated and aware that our debt is unsustainable, but they keep voting for the two dominant parties because of drug law. They're just that cultured that they value drug laws (which aren't enforced, nor effective, and have deadly consequences to tens of thousands) over the survival of their civilization as they know it.

On second thought, no, that's ridiculous.
