  1. Which is why I for one am not worried about it. If we fall, everyone falls. Everyone knows it. If we fall, the world goes backwards. If we fall, will this place be worth living in?

    Not typical American arrogance. Just answer this American's question, in detail, if you don't mind.

  3. You have obviously not run anything major. The CEO knows what he must know, nothing more. It is impossible to know everything. Not enuf time in the day.

  4. Any place that has less humans, is a safe place. But the reason there is less humans in a certain place is that there is dangerous and harsh nature/wild.

    Rural USA is excellent, spacious, beautiful. Less cost of living. Cheap real estates. Big cities are useless. Abandon/leave big cities. Go back to nature where you came from.

  5. Bill gates should donate $30 Billion to USA, Carlos slim should donate $30 Billion, Warren buffett $25 Billion, Ambani and Tata should donate 75% money. There are some 2000 billionaires and some 70 million millionaires in this world. World governments should donate big money to USA.

    I think USA will earn $5 Trillion donation.

    Barack obama collected multi-trillion dollars from USA Tax-payers and donated it to giant companies.

    Bearice is trying to collect multi-trillion dollars from world people and donate it to USA.

    Who is more intelligent. Bearice or Obama?

    obviously Bearice is more intelligent but who is EL Presidente with power at least in the US?

  7. If 70 million millionaires donate $1 million each, that would be $70 Trillion donation for USA. (my maths is not good)

  8. If USA goes down, millionaires and billionaires also go down with USA. So it is better that millionaires and billionaires donate 10% or 25% of their money to USA. Make your own decision.

    The only thing worse than your math is your facts. The World Wealth Report for 2010 reports that there are 10M world millionaires, measured by household net worth. This of course does not mean that they can afford to make a 1M 'gift' without wiping themselves out. Why call for a gift? Why don't you just call to have them shot and then take their money...you could call it a wealth tax. You really should go live in Ted Kazinski's cabin.
