the original American Dream which was all about freedom from Govt and being able to live as you see fit (so long as you don't break the law), minimum taxes, small Govt and land ownership was replaced a long time ago with a dream of abundance and materiality.
the Americans used to be amongst the best educated people because Govt was small and not involved in education, but since the Rockefeller's managed to get control of the American education system, that all changed, history was re-written and the American dream was sold to the whole world as being a dream of riches and possessions. history can be forgotten in a matter of 2 generations, so its easy for them to do this.

That mile a gallon SUV your higschool kid is driving is getting pricy? Real tough tittie american consumer. Real tough.
is it "tough tittie" just for the Americans?!
China in the last few weeks downgraded ALL western currency's from triple A status to double A. the UN has put out a call they want the US dollar as the worlds reserve currency replaced with a basket of currency's all linked to what will be known as SDR's (special drawing rights). in order to do that they will have to devalue EVERYONE'S money, my question is...how much more can they devalue our money?!
there are so many stories all in the mainstream now that its unbelievable that a revolution hasn't already begun!
last week i was watching sky news i think (could have been BBC news) and they had some so-called "expert" spouting off some figures saying "the economy grew by X% in the last quarter proving we are coming out of the recession". just a few problems with this so-called "experts" opinion...1, we are in a double dip inflationary depression, NOT a recession. 2, our industrial base has gone to china, Russia, India, Mexico and other country's. 3, when you raise taxes and cut back on public services you further destroy the economy. 4, the so-called "expert" failed to tell us which part of the economy is recovering quicker than expected, its the service sector he was talking about, not job and industrial recovery....
i could go on ripping his statement to shreds but you get the picture....i hope!
we are all seriously in deep dooh-dooh because of the banks and traitorous politicians and it has nothing to do with American consumerism.
