Be careful when you click the above link ... the spinning numbers will make you dizzy, the totals will make you puke, and the conclusions will make you bawl.

I believe we’ve long passed the event horizon where the entire earning potential of every able bodied American (read theft potential of the govt.) couldn’t pay down just the interest on the debt. There are dark times ahead.

This is Bull sh*t.
I quit watching after the guy babbles on for an hour, yes an hour. I quit before he even got to the video. He keeps saying, "But first, let me tell you...."
DON"T WASTE YOUR TIME!!

Okay thanks for your input. How long (in length of time) do you believe it should take to explain the current economic conditions,why and what to do. 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes?
So you think the US dollar is safe, the federal government is all of sudden going to exercise fiscal responsibility, and we will not collapse?

"Okay thanks for your input. How long (in length of time) do you believe it should take to explain the current economic conditions,why and what to do. 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes?" 10-15 minute max. Everything he explained is already known by me and probably most informed FReepers. I knew I'd been suckered when he began to explain to me how suprised the Jews were when the Holocaust began....come on!!
That's when (after about an hour) that I got real pissed and quit watching.
I don't dispute anything he said though...
I would have liked to have heard his recommendations but I couldn't wait through another, "But first let me..."
