you are a fool with no memory. I guess that pretty much defines you as a fool, Scott.

Have you never heard of Jimmy Carter? My parents were paying 17% for their mortgage under Jimmy Carter, and inflation was spiraling.

A friend of mine took his college loans and put it in a money market and netted 12% per year gauanteed. Gasoline was 20% more expensive than it is today.

Under Jimmy Carter, the US was totally disrepected and laughed at internationally as a paper tiger. In fact, the Russians disrespected Carter so much they invaded Afghanistan under his watch, as they knew he would sit by and do nothing, and that is just what Carter did. Nothing.

That is how bad things were under Jimmy Carter.
