The Collapse of America Will Be Our Fault

Everything seems upside down. Led by the media, many of the American people feel relieved by President Obama signing a bill that will "open the government". The stock market showed a significant increase. The administration and Congress will go back to their ways of enormous spending. They will satisfy themselves and the American people by making token, minor cuts in spending and claim it as very positive step. Many so called "economists" will tell you this is a good thing. We can all go back to our lives as usual, no worries.

Yet this bill signing to open the government, in particular, may be a turning point that will lead to the final leg of the economic collapse of America. In 3 years our national debt will be over $20 trillion, still running out of control. Our economy will not be able to sustain itself and things will then become irreversible. The economic collapse will place the American people into a dire state, widespread poverty and hunger, with a great deal of suffering. Our freedoms will be taken away so as to preserve order. Our once great democracy will be on the verge of collapse, following the economy. The legacy left to our children, our grandchildren, and future generations will be a miserable one. And it will be OUR fault. We sat back and allowed all this to happen. We didn't use our intelligence and common sense to do anything about this. Yet it was all there right in front of us.

What we should have done is stopped our federal government and members of Congress dead in their tracks. We should have allowed a complete shut down and suffered to consequences now, as bad as it could have been, and take the punishment now in lesser form. We should have demanded an approved federal budget under our close scrutiny. We should have demanded a stop to the out of control spending and a short term committed plan toward achieving a balanced budget. We should have demanded fiscal responsibility by our government and members of Congress. We should have given a non partisan threat to all members of Congress that we would vote them out of office if they did not comply.

Only then could America have survived. Now it may be too late. We have effectively given them, with the help of the media, a license to destroy America. There is nothing to celebrate about today. There should only be sadness.
