I blame obama, the anti-capitalist. Look the Republicans submitted 3 complete plans to control deficit spending and save the credit rating but obama and Reid declined every one of them. Then the democrats modified the Republican plan to make it pass.
S&P said the only way to stop the downgrade was the orginal Republican plan of Cut, Cap and Balance. Now obama is investigating and torturing the S&P. Geithner: "No Risk of Downgrade" http://www.mediaite.com/tv/tim-geithner-... obama: "I voted against it, before I was for it".

Harry Reid: "I voted against it, before I was for it". http://blogs.abcnews.com/thenote/2011/04... obama Sets Largest Monthly Deficit Spending in History $223 BILLION http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/mar/7/government-posts-biggest-monthly-deficit-ever.
The tea party's Brinkmanship is what caused the downgrade, S&P has said that it was the tea party brinkmanship and the unwillingness to increase revenues that triggered the downgrade. If you don't believe the President or the S&P then all you have to do is read the words of Ronald Reagan to see who is at fault... "Congress consistently brings the Government to the edge of default before facing its responsibility. This brinkmanship threatens the holders of government bonds and those who rely on Social Security and veterans benefits.
Interest rates would skyrocket, instability would occur in financial markets, and the Federal deficit would soar. The United States has a special responsibility to itself and the world to meet its obligations. It means we have a well-earned reputation for reliability and credibility – two things that set us apart from much of the world" Reagan warned about this type of politics back in 1987 and the American People know who to blame.
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.
