Maybe the massive exposure of deceitful big business financial practices in the U.S. will prove to be an important catalyst for the sharp decline in the country's international stature and leadership role. After all, no system of government has ever survived indefinitely.

If U.S. companies are lying about their earnings (which many appear to be doing), and the U.S. Government has been condoning or even facilitating this action (which also appears to be the case), and the world becomes fully cognizant of these facts, the game could be over in more ways than one. This would be especially true if European companies are shown to have achieved better LEGITIMATE results, in the aggregate, which exceed the FALSIFIED results (pro forma) U.S. companies are floating.

Our "elected officials" are behaving in a maniaical way too. I'm scared. The "patriotism stuff" seems more fake than I have ever witnessed.
