8. Well, I think great hardships are definitely coming
Even if nothing else goes wrong, that huge chunk of baby Boomers are going to be retiring soon, and they are going to impact the economy across the board with ripple effect.

Had we followed the path of Clintonomics (yes, I know that many of the same trends speeding up now were only slowed, not reversed, during the Last Days of the Old Republic, but still it was ultimately a fiscally responsible platform) we would have been ready to brace for the impact.

As Katrina and Rita show us, we are a Third-World Nation seeking it's level.

We still have far to fall before the rest of the nation cathes up with our government and media in the Third-World.

Make no mistake...these are the Good Old Days.

Pity those who come after, in a trash-filled Third-World Economy, no real Middle-Class anymore, and the leaden fist of Tyranny and Propaganda awaiting anyone who dares speak against the Imperial Family and their Minions.
