Of course, this fiscal recklessness began 40 years ago with nonsense like LBJ's "Great Society," "War on Poverty," ruinous Vietnam adventure, etc. and continued through successive regimes right up to the present. Now the Fed no longer reports M3 in order to hide from the public its massive liquidity pumping to buy time before the inevitable collapse. BTW, the bad news is that your savings and pension will be toast. This makes all the rhetoric about "saving Social Security" a complete joke!

The current situation definitely reminds one of the latter stages of the Roman Empire. The big question is, will the U.S. go over the edge of the cliff or pull back in time? The chances of the latter happening seem slim at best. This barely scratches the veneer covering the ongoing gross corruption and crimes committed in this country and by this country abroad.
