Brewski,
We let the grandchildren of the Carpetbaggers bull shit us into believing that they didn't blow up the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

when corporations hold all the power they will do what is best for them. Not you.
You did miss the declining value of the US Dollar.... for the first time in my memory, the Canadian Dollar is worth more than the US Dollar (no offense to the neighbors to the North)!
I also heard on the news that some countries in Europe are refusing to accept the Dollar in exchange for Euros because of the value.

yes...and I also demand to be paid in Euros at work. Their still deliberating on if they will.
People have survived worse.
You forgot CHEMTRAILS! Though!
Massive government conspiracy to gas us with commercial airliners.

I'm not exactly a democrat, but I'm sure as H*ll not a republican. Everytime they get in power, I get my ass , (financially) handed to me in a sack. I think the only way for it to work and control the greedy politicians is a 5 party system . But , they can't even get a third party going , so that will never happen.

:) No offence taken... ;) Your economy does however reflect on ours, so our Canadian Dollar is now at...CAD/USD 0.9766 :o after a bad past couple of days of knee jerk, panic trading ::)
$ $.......TIGER.......$ $
I had to chuckle because an older man was in front of me in the store and he started to complain when the clerk gave him a Canadian quarter. He said "I should get two of these"... The look on his face when the clerk told him that Canadian money was worth more than US money was absolutely priceless!!!
hell yeh...finally it comes around!
Our government is totally controlled by specials interest. We don't get much say so anymore I think that's why we are in the mess we are in. Things don't change easily
I can remember , I think it was in '64 that the CDN dollar was worth more that the USD . I visited home in '64 and the difference was very useful!
