Mired in the Fog of Lucidity |
Sounds like some chickens may be coming home. It's not like there haven't been any warnings and you can kick the can only so many times. https://www.foxbusiness.com/ma...dallas-fed-president | ||

No double standards |
A portent of stormy weather -- aging workforce, sluggish productivity, increasing debt/deficits. I might add an increasing portion of the population who rely on/demand from the gov't for their daily bread. "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women. When it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it....While it lies there, it needs no constitution, no law, no court to save it" - Judge Learned Hand, May 1944 | |||

Will we become a latter-day Brazil with debt we can't handle and weak growth? Hard to see how it isn't a real possibility. But all the pols keep spending and borrowing. No one will challenge the spending juggernaut. I can't blame them, in a way, as the voters have proven time after time that every voter's and every party's sacred spending cows cannot be touched without losing office. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

And so they 'pretend and extend'. It's all good.... until one day it's not. That day is coming. Any rational person knows it. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||
