Even if you do mange to come out ahead the chances of you actually keeping everything such as your home, your vehicles and personal property is slim.

The newest training programs for the IRS and a couple of other agencies is to actively hunt for accounts that will bring in the most revenue when liquidated the quickest. To find any reason to put liens out.

Am I paranoid?

I don’t care but I can see and the smell it coming.

The U.S. economy is bleeding millions of good jobs. Greedy CEOs are systematically shipping them overseas and our politicians are standing around and doing nothing about it.

Stopped reading there.

This could be the foundation of a possible second American revolution.

25 - Demographics - Game over ‘nuff said

26 - This quote

“The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president.

“The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince.

“The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.”

27 - The above quote soon to be modified

“The danger to America is not Mitt Romney but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Republican nomination. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Mitt Romney nomination than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to nominate such a man to run for their president.

“The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Romney, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince.

“Republicans can survive a Mitt Romney who is, after all, merely a fool. They are less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their nominee.”

Nope, I'm not overly optimistic, particularly for the next year. That becomes permanent if socialism wins again in November.

#15 The number of middle class neighborhoods also continues to decline. In 1970, 65 percent of all Americans lived in "middle class neighborhoods". By 2007, only 44 percent of all Americans lived in "middle class neighborhoods".

Going back to the original study, it looks like that is because more people are living in areas based on income rather than there being less middle class people. Instead of the rich, middle and poor being more likely to live in neighborhoods together giving a "nice" middle average income, the rich move into their own neighborhoods and the middle move away from the poor (less likely that the poor move away from the middle). So while there are fewer "middle class" neighborhoods, there are more both rich and poor neighborhoods.

This also could come from statistical anomalies like having more finely split neighborhoods now that were in 1970. If Country Club Estates and Wrong Side of the Tracks were both in the same census grouping in 1970 but are now in two different blocks you would have changed one big "middle-class" neighborhood into one rich and one poor neighborhood.

#25 - Coming medical crisis - By 2013, less than one-third of U.S. physicians are expected to remain in private practice...small practice settings may be a thing of the past. The influx of aging baby boomers, less physicians available because of low payments, high insurance and high amount of paperwork will cause more problems than we can handle.

- Article on more women working parttime as MDs so they can raise children and since they are the ones who most likely work as primary care physicians....there will be a lot less of them to go around. This article also speaks to the residency bottleneck problem which is rarely addressed -

Question: What happens when a nation sends generations of children into socialist-entitlement and compulsory schools?

Answer: It produces citizens who have learned that government, and the voting mob, has great power to take money from their neighbor for tuition-free schooling. Well?..Gee!..Why not use government and the voting mob to get **lots** of socialist goodies?

Question: At best, our earliest modern socialist schools offered the students a lukewarm generic Protestantism. What did the children learn?

Answer: To be lukewarm and generic about their faith. ( By the way, Christ spits the lukewarm out of His mouth!)

Question: What is the religious worldview taught in every government owned and run socialist K-12 school in this nation?

Answer: Utter godlessness! Simply to cooperate in the classroom the child must think and reason godlessly. How could it be otherwise?

Question: Why did citizens vote in Franklin D. Roosevelt, Lydon B. Johnson, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and now the flaming Marxist, Obama?

Answer: Godless socialist schools taught them to see government as their Redeemer and Savior and to worship at the altar of big government.

So, are you saying that America’s Kristallnacht is rapidly approaching?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

“Greedy” CEOs?

I would call them CEOs who are responsible to their shareholders and boards of directors. Why should shareholders prop up a political-economic-cultural-educational system that is beyond hope? Why should they take the whack in the wallet?

#4. Population is getting older. Older people need more health care.

Also healthcare is getting better things that you would just have to live with 30 years ago they can fix or soften.

Other Americans "tune out" by watching endless hours of television, by playing endless hours of video games or by indulging in endless hours of other forms of entertainment.

I'm waiting for our local university to offer a Master's degree in studying "The Kardashians"
