Did isn't the whole issue, the govt is too big and has dug it's hands too far into everything it can its now too difficult for a lot of companies to make money. Sooner or later (sooner) it will all come crashing down and then when there are another 10 million out of work and starving, will the govt still be writing checks? That's about 5 million in income tax revenue gone, 450 million in corporate taxes gone, more people than ever on government assistance or unemployment. I don't know sure don't look good in the next 3-5 years, they can keep sending out checks but there isn't anything to back the checks now its all debt. Can anyone safely say they can provide for their family for 5 years without income of any kind? I can't do it for myself let alone a family. When the money that has been spent catches up to the money they have left it will outweigh that amount several times over and when the grocery stores don't get paid for all those WIC voucher sales they will go out of business adding more to the ranks of unemployed govt dependant Americans. At what point does it all fall apart, we have been running with a growing debt for so long nobody remembers a time when we were debt free, how long till the rest of the world says no more. I just wonder, when we are starving in the streets hungry and cold will the rest of the world go into debt to send us aid in their C-17 and C-5 transports? What's that you say nobody has a C-5 and no other country in the world hands out aid like we do? Huh wonder what it will take to learn this lesson and I wonder how many of us will live thru it, no I HOPE most of us live thru it. I'm sorry for the rant but it's time to realize we are at the brink of something unprecedented in the history of the world, the closest thing in our time was the collapse of the USSR and yes it CAN happen to anyone once you get so complacent you can't see the forest for the trees.
