Someone was asking a while back how the rest of the world is seeing us at this time. Here are two good examples.

Due to budget cutbacks, the USA will no longer be the Greatest Country on Earth, instead we will be known as the Pretty Good Country in central North America. All of you "emerging economies" , please seek aid elsewhere.

When I was in H.S., it only took one week to study the Roman Empire. That one lasted a good 2000 years. We're a little over 200....

If you're really interested in the topic, read "Collapse" by Jered Diamond (may have mispelled his name but he also wrote "Guns, Germs, and Steel").
It's one of the most in-depth studies of the rise and fall of societies that I've come across.
Faster, faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self- preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property, and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."
--Thomas Jefferson

We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

This will help set a new "low" for the price of a slave. Hopefully, the market bottom.
