It seems you are blaming Merkel in Europe and Obama in the US. You haven't yet commented on why the US economy started to go downhill after December 2010. Instead you are espousing what the crowd at the Republican debate said "Let him die." Only that it is being cloaked in gentler terms with the use of words like free markets, capitalism etc.

The bottom line is that the endless bailouts are heroin to the heroin addicts. The bailouts are endless only in your mind. In fact, the bailouts stopped after the crisis had passed. Then we got a stimulus bill and an extension of unemployment benefits. Those are not bailouts. I don't know what's the best thing for Greece and the EU.......a bailout or default. And I certainly don't think you or Ron Paul know either. You're simply applying your ideology to a complicated situation because it makes you feel good. What I do know is that Obama saved this country's ass from going under. We were in a crisis of immense proportions......and we didn't need an extremist bent on destruction. If Ron Paul had been in power, we would have lost many more banks as well as GM and Chrysler. That's the truth.
