Which upsets you more: Debt ceiling raised by $1.9 trillion, Bernanke refusing to tell who got $2 trillion OR?

Don't listen to these knuckleheads who blame Republicans. Both parties are to blame. Democrats are responsible for all the entitlement programs that cost billions of dollars a year.

Each side shares some of the blame. As a country ,we've gotten too greedy and too material. It's time to get back to the basics.

The government has been on a never-ending insane orgy of spending for decades. They aren't content with just spending the tax dollars that they legally extort from us, now they want to spend more and more and more. And they spend money to enrich their cronies and special interests.

Cost overruns are standard operating procedure----just about everything the government gets involved in ends up costing a hundred times more than originally estimated. And our politicians don't care. They just continue to borrow more and more.

It's like giving an unlimited credit card to a five-year-old in a combination candy and toy store. What can be done? We can vote independent, and drive the Republican and Democrat parties out of business----they are the ones who brought this situation on us.

Obama goes along with the spending, and makes the situation worse. Our politicians have no regard of the debt burden that they are leaving for our children and grandchildren. It's an intolerable situation, and yet the members of Congress still continue the spending as if there's no tomorrow.

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.
