And Now...Reality Sets In

 

 

For the last 3 years the United States was "made to look good", by hype from the Obama administration on how much progress was being made, and a constant stream of media communication to the American people that did the same. Articles were purposely headlined to make things appear positive...the economy, jobs, the housing market, education, foreign policy, etc., you name it. Seldom did you pick up a newspaper without reading something positive that was happening, all attributed to President Obama and his administration. There was a barrage of propaganda constantly fed to the American people.

It worked, President Obama was reelected.

Now the 2012 elections are over and reality will set in. The real and inescapable truth is that the United States is in very deep trouble, on the verge of economic collapse. The numbers and facts speak for themselves. Enormous and rapidly growing national debt; huge unemployment and underemployment; an extremely large number of people on food stamps and in poverty; real inflation, what it cost to live by, much higher than reported; the middle class and seniors in a financial squeeze; mounting healthcare costs; billions of dollars of paper money being printed per month flooding the market, devaluing the dollar. The super inflation bubble is about to burst. Medicare and Social Security are headed toward bankruptcy in a few short years with no plan in place to do anything about it. There are a very large percentage of people who have been pushed into a state of financial dependency upon the federal government. The U.S. Postal Service and the National Park Service are both in financial trouble. There is more...much more.

The numbers are right there in front of us, they are inescapable. For the next 4 years and beyond, all of the hype in the world and propaganda are not going to erase the looming financial disaster that confronts our nation. We cannot continue to ignore the fact that all of these issues need to be addressed, and with a sense of urgency.

Reality is right here before us. Urgent action is needed by our federal government as we close out 2012, and enter 2013. Failure to do so will result in the sure financial collapse of our nation. Politicking is over.
