    World power swings back to America

    "The American phoenix is slowly rising again. Within five years or so, the US will be well on its way to self-sufficiency in fuel and energy. Manufacturing will have closed the labour gap with China in a clutch of key industries. The current account might even be in surplus."

    China is screwed just like Japan is with the aging population. The one child policy will lead to a huge demographic drag on them as their are not enough workers to support their graying population. Our birth rate is also not that great but we have a secret weapon. Mexicans. They keep the ponzi/pyramid scheme going here.

    Nice to hear some good news. I'll keep my fingers crossed. At the moment it sounds too good to be true.

    It's a race to the end.

    Failed leadership got us here & the Bankers agenda to control the Globe w/ the US as lead role in the World Governance due to Military Industrial Complex strength.

    We are now in a Technocracy phase.

    Having outsourced most of our manufacturing resources due to politicians whoring out to corporations, corporations setting up shop elsewhere from financial taxes & greed.

    Soon, there will be a World Wide created food shortage watch it happen...

    We still need sound leadership and fiscal policy here. Just because of our GDP we will always be number 1 (in our lives) but that doesn't mean we can continue with the massive debt we have racked up, out of control social spending, and that we can keep electing socialist assholes into office (that includes Bush with his continuance of massive social spending, debt, and a home for all mantra).

    I do think they are blowing smoke up our ass and calling it sunshine.
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Chuck, we miss ya man.

    This is true BUT it was a Republican who helped get us on our path & here w/ the spending as well. The socialist asshole & his THUG brigade are the "ONE's" selected to do the deed....

    As this continues to unfold it becomes painfully apparant that there was an agenda (inside job) & and we collectively did not get the memo.

    The Repubs/Dems are in on it together. imo, we should have always had sound fiscal policy. While it appears true that the US was safe under GWB watch how much was false flag vs. truth vs. agenda for Patriot Act to usurp constitutional / individual rights ?

    This piss on my back & tell me it's raining crap is a no go for me....

    Now look where we are today ?
