I get what you are doing- you're not happy with our current socioeconomic system so you cultivate the idea that it is going to collapse and the more people that talk like that the more real that possibility becomes.

What did he say about nation building when he was fooling all the right wing rubes into voting for him??? Which excuses did he use to take us into Iraq.. and why???( how many excuses were used to supercede the original excuses when the first ones did not pan out? How many general officers warned him of the consequences of his actions.. and he disregarded those and went with more pliable opinions( called YES MEN) of other general officers after he forced the unpliable ones(NOT yes men)to retire?? Did the misgivings of the NOT YES MEN come true??? Did your former fratboy cheerleading partyboy do alcohol and drugs and get DUI"S???
