The American economy is worse than anytime in my 60 years of memory. Arguably it’s worse today than in the 1930’s because then we were on the gold standard and the money you had stayed good. The nation is literally being invaded from the south by people who will do nothing to improve the economy or job picture and this invasion is neither acknowledged or addressed. The world in general closely resembles 1938 from the perspective of authoritarian regimes jockeying for invasions. An army, which may number up to 330 million strong and straight from the ninth century is hand-chopping and beheading its way across the economically important middle east. So, what is it we hear most frequently from this administration? That’s right, gay and lesbian rights. Even if I were wildly in favor of gay, lesbian and trans-gender issues, I think I’d be more concerned about the real problems in the world.

How very true! In fact, I'd say the invasion is/was being encouraged by the nobama regime. Another Cloward-Piven technique.

I wholeheartedly join you in this view. Thanks!

I wasn’t born until 1944 but my parents dealt with the thirties and I grew up hearing about it. Of course things were not roses and clover when I was a lad either but I feel CERTAIN that in reality things now are worse than in the thirties. One primary reason is as you mention we still had real money then. Secondly those people had survival skills that most of us can only dream about. Thirdly, there was not nearly the density of population, someone who had the skills could obtain access to land to fish, hunt and grow food. A lot of people now don’t even have a way to get out of the city. Fourthly there were not so many who would kill you in a flash for a pound of bread. People were not nearly so afraid of each other as now. There was no threat of invasion by insane lunatics from other countries.
