Numbers, Please

Much of the supporting materials for the newly-released movie IOUSA, detailing the financial abyss brought to you via universal suffrage and your Federal Government, comes from the brave work of former US Comptroller General David Walker, who put together this overview last March of just how bad the problems really are.

Spend some time over this weekend reading the material and thinking about it.

Then look around at all of the people you know in your various life roles - family, friends, and acquaintances from both your personal and professional lives.

Being brutally honest with yourself, ask how many of those folks have the character and courage to do what it would take to even attempt a electoral fix before the whole shebang collapses into a welter of foreign creditor claims, crushed asset values, and resultant economic enslavement.

Having done so, then ask yourself what exactly would that electoral fix be?

Do you see the problem now?

Tempus fugit.
