With all the political power these leeches have, they'd probably find a way to have the private retirement accounts of the plebe's looted to fund their golden parachutes. The situation in Wisconsin is living proof of how absurd this situation has become.
If Walker loses in wisconsin, then we may as well throw in the towel, its mob rule to simply loot the treasury....
There's nothing in the Treasury to loot. If the dems stay in control another 4 years we will be wiping the slate clean in 2016 and starting over with blue money.
China and their entire region are making preparations to stop using the dollar as the reserve currency. If, and it's a big if, but if they actually step up to the plate and do that it will be a big step towards the US losing it's benefits from the reserve status of the dollar. China will sell the dollars they have collected over the years and that will be it, game over, huge supply, no demand, buying power of the dollar falling like crazy.. The fight over the pork barrel will be like the fight over the last cookie in a dysfunctional household.
Once that happens, we become Mexico overnight. It's probably the one currency the US dollar actually has gained purchasing power against.
