"Every Generation Needs A New Revolution"
Gosh z3 readers, those fore-fathers sure were insightful. How did they know that bushman's neocons were going to be ruining our country and that a "Revolution" is what we would be needing. Just like Thomas Jefferson said?

The United States? ticking time bomb...if debtor is slave to the lender, what does that make Americans?
The big news is that the U.S. current account deficit rose to a new record, its ninth record high in 10 years.
The number for last year was $804
billion. The number for the last quarter of last year was $224.9 billion,
which shows the trend is still upward. At the current rate, the current
account deficit will hit $1 trillion within a year or two. It is already
at 7% of GDP - a figure that would normally only be seen in a banana
republic or an empire going bananas.
Why doesn't the election process produce better political leaders?
It is
because as time goes by, more and more people become complicit in
decadence. The voters are further and further removed from the actual
process of government...it is only slogans and photo-ops to them. The
people close to power are the hacks and the hustlers, the politicians on
the make, the parasites and players on the take.
Laws multiply like the fishes and the loaves. Moses handed down only 10
commandments; Jesus said only two of them were really important. But
federal, state and local government give us 10,000 commandments - each one
of them designed to protect or pamper some slimy creature living in some
dark hole of the republic. More and more people get checks, subsidies,
grants and payoffs. More and more committees, agencies, and bureaus are
set up to provide sinecures and curry favors.
If we read it right, as many
as half all the jobs created in America in the last five years were
created by government!
History cannot seem to leave well enough alone. Economies, societies,
institutions, animals, vegetables, and even minerals are always
degenerating, degrading, and disappearing. When our present civilization
has finally gone away, what will be left of it? Just a few old coins, and
granite countertops...some converted into tombstones.
