Great article Shunty, I'm glad you posted it.

<"The simplest reason why Romney lost was because it is impossible to compete against free stuff">.
... Something we've been pointing out here for months. How can I sell you something to which you can obtain for free?

<" the secretly-recorded video in which Romney acknowledged the difficulty of winning an election in which “47% of the people">
... Sometimes it hurts to hear the truth, especially at an extremely wrong time. He at least opened my eyes to whats going on Shunty.

<"Almost half of the population has no skin in the game – they don’t care about high taxes, promoting business, or creating jobs, nor do they care that the money for their free stuff is being borrowed from their children and from the Chinese.">
... Ouch, .. the truth really hurts. I often wonder if this is something we as Americans will be able to turn around, ... or even have the will to do so!

Some great facts here Shunty, ... so much of it reflects with me, as you might know, I was not born here so I took the Oath once I joined the Military, I can confidently say that, .. people that look in from the outside (foreigners), ... see things in a totally different light, I strongly support that view.

Thank you for the lesson.

Aram, James

<" In essence, the people vote for a Congress who will not raise their taxes, and for a President who will give them free stuff, never mind who has to pay for it.">
... DOGGY DOG ... Shame! ... makes me feel like stopping payment to the Government, this is just one of many reason I dont trust big Government, especially the Fed's.
