Once upon a time, the smartest people in the country would apply all their brain power in a serious fashion to actually solve real problems.

It’s an indictment of the times we live in that the people in charge apply all their brain power to come up with the cleverest methods they can to *avoid* solving serious problems.

If this crowd was around during World War II, I’d expect them to have built a cardboard cut-out in the shape of “Fat Man” and then claim they were working on the design of an atomic bomb.

I once heard these exact same sentiments expressed over the criminal class, aka Mafia. You can apply it also to the Thug class. They will come up with some amazing schemes just to avoid a real ‘job’.

What makes you think that isn't the policy, of whoever is telling George Soros and the Boys Downtown and the Fed what must happen/must not happen? Social Security, U.S. national savings (we're too comfortable), older Americans, and nationad debt must all go away. "A *thing* happened. Live with it, it's just a trend -- toward no savings, no medicines, no government, no money, and rationed food/water. It's your fault. Nothing to be done. No medz for you!! Try Soylent Green, it's nutritious."
