It is an extraordinary time.

• We borrow money from other countries so that rich people don’t have to pay taxes.
• We borrow money from other countries and let private corporations steal it.

And somehow, the American people seem to be all right with that.

I’m beginning to think that the collective IQ of the American public is around 60, otherwise why would they stand for this sh*&?

Perhaps the American People are asleep or cultivate apathy.

And we will repay the money handed to the rich right now in the form of tax rebates.

This is called wealth-transferring. El Shrubbo borrows money to hand out to his rich peers and we pay the bills when they come due.

Hi,

There seems to have happened a shift in the way the American and Canadian economies functioned. There used to be many years of deepening debt and deficit in Canada and budget surpluses in the U.S. But now things have shifted and the opposit is true for both countries. As a Canadian I am very happy for our country, but I just wish that every single country out there would enjoy even more of the same good news. And that includes the U.S. our very good neighbor to the south.

Best

I believe that the American people are so enslaved to their everyday routines that they are honestly unable to come out of their trances and stand up for their country. Everything that they think they believe in is falsified. A nation of slavery by means of fear. It is a sad time we live in here in America.
