"a government panel to OPERATE IN SECRET"

There sure seems to be one hell of a lot of 'SECRET' panels
operating in this government. I feel like America is one giant house of cards stacked to the ceiling and propped up by politicians who are raiding whats left in the checking acccount while misdirecting our attention by enticing our greed with one bubble after another.

We all have to admit that the Fed and our Politicians have created one bubble after another in an effort to both enrich their own pockets and manipulate the economy and markets to support their own re-election and political agendas.

In the meantime, corrupt communist, socialist and madmen led regimes like Russia, China, Iran & Venezeula are reaping billion dollar windfalls due to dollar deflation and commodity inflation.

We've gutted Americas manufacturing base and fiscal future in return for lower capital gains taxes and one asset bubble after another- from tech & internet stocks, to housing, to commodities and now the broad market.

Many of us have taught both our children and our grandchildren the financial lessons that we and our parents have learned- in that no strong and healthy house can be built by debt, credit and speculation- but yet that is the America we now have.

-a flimsy fiscal house of cards.

America needs a third-party political cleansing of the house, senate and the Presidency and needs it within the next 2 election cycles or America will become a fat, aged and forgotten power within 20 years.

Theres my smackdown.
