Hello:
I've been wondering when this country will get back on the right track. However, I don't think "when" is the right question. I think "if" is more appropriate.
Yes, we are a world power - frankly, the only world power. But we are a nation in decline. The good jobs are gone forever, and so are our morals. Pensions don't mean anything, and SS is going broke. Decent health care is out of reach for many of us with more joining the roles of the un-insured each day. I used to have hope, but now I don't.
In a nutshell, the problem is that billions of people from all over the world are willing to work harder and for less money than we are. The Chinese (billions of them), the Indians, Koreans and Pakistani’s. Hell, you don't have to look further than right here. We have illegal Mexicans (who work very hard).
I think we're toast. Europe too. Buy gold.
