We've been in it too long and Anglo Saxons believe they have the answer to everything when in fact they really have the problem for everything. Technology saved man in moderation and killed him in excess. Look at history. How many empires of this size ever saved themselves? Smaller ones have. We have already fallen off the cliff and we cannot reverse gravity. No, greed is not good but it is human. We won’t get out of the rut.

You're getting them cheap at a buck and a half - they were two dollars years ago in Denver.

Many are Mexicans who offer their home made recipes and sauces which are out of this world. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Now if I can just scrape up a buck and a half..

Let's see 11.7-1.9 = 9.8% They get to cut each by about 10% this year alone. They have been doing the real versus core cuts for the past 10 years. Social security will not have much value soon. This is the plan of dems and repubs. By saying that inflation is low (when it is in fact high) they can cut social security payments, federal employees pension payments, military pension payments.

"Changing Ruts" which is where we're going - to another rut. "The history is clear, those who accepted their change in status and became partners in world survived..." Didn't they usually partner with the winners/new empire? Hello new ____ Empire, good-bye US empire. I have decided, when no one can afford the prices at our fine dining Italian cuisine establishment, I will sell burritos from a cooler on the front porch.
