IMO, I have sadly concluded that's exactly where we are headed. Stupidity and greed have triumphed. This entire dodgy situation is coming to a head very fast. It is unlikely the Fed or anybody else can keep the all the balls juggling until after the election. The electorate's reaction to plunging into this abyss will be to really throw out the GOP this time - entirely the wrong move but the most likely one. It will be like 1932, redux.
This blame game is extremely well coordinated by the Dems and the MSM. One need only look at the higher price of oil today than a year ago and now hear the deafening silence on this subject from Congress now that the Dems are in charge there. The volume on troubles only goes up when the GOP is in charge.
This has gone beyond our government doing what is good for America and the American People. It has become all about gaining naked power, just like the Iraq War. Facts no longer matter, just perceptions.
God help us.
Lack of accountability at the top from both sides of the aisle.
