Do you believe the U.S. is on the verge of a financial meltdown?

I believe we are closer to it than we have ever been as a country. Our debt is beyond the scope of comprehension for the average citizen and we have no real plan to pay it back. At the same time, we have elected officials who wrecklessy keep adding programs and growing the size of government which only increases our annual deficits and expands the debt.

The economy continues to languish in a recessional phase which could easily fall into one of the greatest periods of economic inflation in our history. In fact, we are seeing the early stages of that now as the price of fuel steadily rises. This single factor will have a cascading effect throughout the economy driving up shelf prices of goods while at the same time the dollar buys less and less in all spectrums.In the short term, our only hope is that the rest of the world has enough faith and trust in our ability to survive that they will continue to invest their efforts into our economics.

Once we kill off the faith in our ability to meet our debts, we will begin the slide into a meltdown. Once we do, the world will be left with a giant sucking sound as the Titanic that was America slips below the dark surface of the deep waters of debt.WB.

I believe the world is on this journey to radical shift. Globally the monetary system now in place is a joke. It has it's good points but also many pitfalls and road blocks.

The universe and our world is filled with abundance, but until we, as mankind, stop the struggle to survive and join the journey to "experience life" we will have the chaos we now have on the globe. The shift we need for the human race is not economic - it is a perception shift.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
