U.S. Warned: Learn from the fall of Rome

[SpiralHawk]

Thanks a diaperload, republicon Homelanders. Your perverted concepts of so-called "conservativism" have brought these needless plagues on the US of A and its people. Shame on you, republicon Homelanders.


LEARN FROM THE FALL OF ROME, US WARNED

The US government is on a burning platform of unsustainable policies and
practices with fiscal deficits, chronic healthcare underfunding, immigration
and overseas military commitments threatening a crisis if action is not
taken soon, the country's top government inspector has warned.

David Walker, comptroller general of the US, issued the unusually downbeat
assessment of his country's future in a report that lays out what he called
chilling long-term simulations.

These include dramatic tax rises, slashed government services and the
large-scale dumping by foreign governments of holdings of US debt.

1. Why do republicon Homelanders pretend to be "conservatives"

When they are in fact radical value-free royalist planetary rip-off scam artistes?

2. Republicon Homelanders respond to Comptroller General

"What's the problem? This is all just fact-based shit.

"Why don't you look on the bright side: War profits for republicon Homelander cronies are WAY up. That's cool, isn't it?

"Rush 'Anal Pimple Military Deferment' Limbaugh says everything is just peachy, so there's really nothing to talk about."

6. A final PUNT for posterity -- then I will let this thread rest

An image of the Homeland that repblicons are working to turn American into.

Why don't republicons recognize how perverse and grossly materialistic their visions are ?

9. I just finished Jared Diamond's "Collapse"

About how civilizations doom themselves by their own short-sightedness and stupidity. This administration seems hell-bound to send us the way of the Maya and the Easter Islanders.

I don't envy the Dem who takes charge in 2009. Cleaning up the mess these neocons made would challenge Hercules.

10. Jared Diamond's "Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed"

Not that republicon Homelanders pay any attention to fact-based books,
but all the same for the rest of humanity, here's the cover:



Amazon.com review:

A book that may change your mind about development, August 2, 2007
By Tunc Ali Kuetuekcueoglu

"This is a brilliant book that may change many minds radically about the concept of economic development. Unfortunately, many influencial economists and politicians that determine the destiny of our ever deteriorating word are almost totally ignorant of nature.

"They think development solely in terms of human production and dollars. Wrong! Don't forget the nature. Nature is our prime producer which produces clean water & air, solar energy, mild climate, fish in oceans, soil for agriculture, inspiration for beauty and fine arts. What's the use of luxury motorcars and notebooks if you lack clean water and pure air? We as human beings have a future only if we can live peacefully with nature and control our population."

12. Because Venus is retrograde in Leo

and because I think we should pay attention to such a dire warning from
the Comptroller General of the United States of America, and because
no doubt republicon Ronald Reagan's dead astrologer would so advise,
I am going to vouchsafe or gainsay or whatever myself and kick this cyberpuppy again.
