Right on Chinu!

The big picture as I see it:


I see a huge depression coming. And eventually the dollar will go into freefall. We are paying 500 billion a year right now in interest on our debt.

If we go into a depression where will the revenues come from to fund our budget? I could see a multi trillion dollar deficit over the next few years trying to pay the interest on the debt, funding two wars, taking care of the baby boomers and trying to stimulate the economy, rebuild our military, infrastructure and supporting our industry e.g. car manufacurers and fiscal stimulation to keep us out of a Japanese like deflation.

Put simply, history will show Bush and the Reublican party did so much damage to our economy it will take decades to repair and we may see a collapse of the dollar and hyper inflation in the meantime.

And Bush and the Republicans sure a hell robbed our children and grandchildren.
