Default Re: cycles, geographic dominance, credit derivatives...

yea bill, but in other countries check out the services they get for their taxes. health care, maybe not the best. good roads and public transportation like we may never see.
still i like our system the best, but it does need major surgery soon.

our standard of living has to drop as the countries we import from get higher standards them selves. as the prices we pay for their goods will rise substantially. and the demand for ours will be less as they develop their own industries. our service industry will prosper up to a point. but it wont happen overnight, but i believe we are on the downside of being the worlds foremost superpower economically. not military wise yet.
