The American people are on the verge of a rude awaking when they find out how fragile their system really is in relation to the rest of the world. Everyone knows that there is more tolerance for mistakes and misunderstanding between friends than enemies. The United States standing in the world is probably at the lowest level ever. The fact that the United States is one of the wealthiest nations in the world that owes and is borrowing more money from the international monetary system does not help the situation. The on going federal twin deficits that keep on growing are the biggest threat to our national security. With oil and our military foreign policy playing a major role in these deficits.

Those who will defend the wicked policies of the Bush Administration will point back to 9/11 as the Holy Grail. Saying we have been attacked declaring a War on Terror, which is another abstract war that can’t be won in the manner we are going about it. So many of America’s priorities are out of line and so many of the policies are out of balance it is having a compounding negative effect on the global economy.

The children of the American taxpayers today will inherit the problems and debt of nation. In the past our forefathers left a nation to their children with more assets than liabilities. This may not be said in the future because of the short slightest of many of our government actions and policies. On the current course America and the world is heading it will not be long before the global economy implodes. With so much legalized corruption within the American system today there is little to no hope things will change for the better.

Only revolutionary changes in the American and global systems from top to bottom will correct the problem we face today. Such as the right to bare firearms in the Constitution must be change to the right to medical care without losing your home. The cost of medical insurance coverage is one of the major factors that’s driving the nation into bankruptcy. The rules, laws and enforcement on the lobbyists, loopholes and earmarks must change from night to day. Basically the whole system needs to be turn up side down with many of the leaders of today paying back the system for their self-center acts of greed. For too long America has been led by leaders who are more concerned about their image and pockets than what is in the best interest of the public they serve.

Well um...that's nice. But it's an unsourced charicature.

do you think he's been drinking too much green tea?

Complain, criticize, complain. Got any good specific solutions?

Problem Solving

The first step to solving many of the problems that United States and the people of the world faces today, is to recognize and agree to the problems. The second step is to do something to correct the problem and this is often when people will disagree. Many of the problems are constantly evolving over time into larger problems that are more complex. As the problems change and evolve so to must answers.

The American Interstate Highway System is a good example of how problems and answers evolve over time. During the 50s under President Eisenhower the main frame to the United States Interstate was created. Fifty plus years later it is costing more to maintain the roads and bridges than it did to build them. Many of the urban Interstate projects by the time of completion could not serve maximum capacity well and are in a state of gridlock today. As a society evolves and grows so do the problems and answers.

If someone could go back in time from today, so they could tell President Eisenhower the size, cost and problems of the United States Interstate System today. They might have never started to design or build the Interstate system then saying the nation cannot afford it. The point is most people today will not be able recognize the answers to our problems of tomorrow. For someone today to outline the answers to the problems of twenty to fifty years from now they would be consider nuts.

The problem as with so many things in life is time. To set-up and organize into operation takes time. Often by the time the operation is working a whole new set of problem arise changing the problems. Only by understanding the big picture of tomorrow can you start to work on the problems in the little pictures of today. As are the problems so too are answers, they are interwoven and connected to society.

Can anyone say Moonbat!

Or someone who has a talent for belaboring the meaningless.

The USA has some fundamental issues. To discuss social change without addressing the fundamental issue is meaningless.

David manages to neglect the fundamental issue of our federal reserve banking system.
Hasn't anyone else noticed how little attention this gets?
Especially while GWB just appointed a new chairman. Why doesn't anyone question this?
Discussion of the federal reserve bank in the media seems taboo.

United States Treasury Bonds

The United States economy is on the cusp of imploding. Anyone looking at the economic charts of the United States would realize that there is real trouble ahead. Foreigners are holding 3 trillion dollars of the 7.2 trillion dollars of the United States debt. The Bank of China bought 200 billion dollars of United States Treasury Bonds last year with a total holding of 600 billion dollar of US Treasury Bonds. Japan is holding over 700 billion dollar of the United States government foreign debt of the 3 trillion dollars. Between the United States government’s twin deficits, foreign and domestic policies there are many international leaders that are questioning the real value of the American dollar.

The value of many countries currencies is directly connected to the value of the United States dollar. This is creating a lot of turmoil in the international financially markets with the higher price of crude oil and the weakening American dollar. The United States has led the world’s nations into the modern world. Today there are real problems and question that the people of the modern world face that have not addressed or answered. The question of the satiability of the current course of the modern world’s energy consumption, world population growth, and the standard of living of the people around the world.

Freedom and democracy without prosperity will lead to chaos. People of the world want the same things for themselves, family, community and nation. They want security, prosperity, good health, respect and a better future for their children. Today the United States government’s policies and actions are jeopardizing the prosperity and security of the international community of nations. Only by the United States government correcting and bring into balance its domestic and foreign policies will the world have a chance for peace, prosperity and security.

The United States military can win the military war by destroying the infrastructure of most of the counties in the world. While losing the economic and political struggle for peace the United States is undermining the security of the world. Today the United States is consuming too much of the world’s debt and oil for there to be enough to go around. The money borrowed and oil consumed by the United States is straining the security of the international financial markets. The overly aggressive military position of the United States has drained 100’s of billions of dollars from the world economy and American taxpayers. February 2005 Taiwan the fifth largest holder of United States debt (56 billion dollars) and South Korea fourth largest holder of 63 billion dollars of United States debt announce they want to sell some of their United States debt. The day China decides to sell their United States Treasury Bonds will be the day nobody will want to be holding the US Bonds.

The lack of balance in the financial, political and diplomatic policies of the United States has raised the level of tension around the world. Only by balancing the policies and role of the United States Government can the real problems be addressed at home and abroad. The United States Federal Government has over extended its position at home and abroad interfering with the individual rights of others. Many of the short-term policies that are serving the best national interest of the United States are at the root of the problems over the long term. Because of the inter connection of the problems so too are the answers.

Only by creating a balanced platform that can hold up to be equal for all sides will we find the answers to the problem we face. The problems we face as a nation in the community of nation will effect us all. The inhuman and unbearable conditions face by the people of one side will migrate to the people on the other side one day. If the United States wants to regain control of there own future and become a respected leader among the leaders of nations. There will have to be major changes made to the United States role and power among the community of nations. The United States government cannot preach democracy and freedom to other nations in the world while they are dictating their policies onto other nations of people in the world. A better balance is needed between the use of diplomacy and the use of military force in promoting democracy and prosperity around the world.

Yea, and I heard the same bullsh!t in the 80's when Reagan outspent the USSR and brought it to collaspe. There is one very undeniable fact here. If the US economy implodes the rest of the world follows. So it is in the interest of the rest of the world to make sure our economy doesn't "implode". Course this is overly simplified but we are dealing with a simple mind here.

Would you care to explain exactly how deficits are a threat to national security? If anything I believe our nations debt to other nations adds to its security because other nations have so much riding on our economy's success. While I believe the level of debt needs to be reduced by keeping spending in check, it is not a doomsday device like you are portraying it.



They will also inherit its strengths and assets. If government can restrain its spending it can be on its way reducing its debt. This will require a new budgeting process with rewards offered to departments that can perform all their duties while staying significantly under budget. Right now if departments have money left over toward the end of the fiscal year, they spend it so they will not be threatened with budget cuts for the next fiscal year. This is a culture that needs change.



Do you understand why the medical costs rise so high requiring more and more dollars every year to cover the same benefits you had last year? Its all supply and demand. There are ways to remedy this but that is a different discussion for a different day.

Global Base Currency

One of the Americas greatest strengths is also apart of one of our greatest weakness the relationship of the United States dollar to the global economy. It is a double edge sword at the end of its time. A new global currency with a formula based on the value of some major international currencies including the price of a barrel of oil. Creating this index to create a global base currency to determine the value of other counties national currencies relationship to others. This currency will only be in circulation between the federal reserve of one nation and another nation in electronic form.

Taking a lot of the pressure off of the American dollar as the global base currency, helping to stabilize the currencies of the nations around of the world. As it is now the currency of the other nations is based on a comparison to the United States dollar. The politics of the United States and its relationship with the individual nation often affects that nations currency. For the allies the better and for a foes the worst depending upon the politics of the United States. The world price of a barrel of oil being the wild card in the currency markets can be a destabilizing factor in the international monetary system.

Strengthening the Universal system on the economic, political, and social level will help balance the future direction of the world. Developing a universal set of standard and practices that the majority of the world agrees too. By increasing the role of the non-profit NGOs on a global level we can utilize the resources of the good people improving the lives of others. Good social domestic programs promoted on an international level customized to the individual problem and regional culture. With more of the world’s natural resource being used in humanitarian ways creating more cooperation and less conflict. With a stronger diplomatic role on a universal level there will be fewer international military wars among nations. Without a strong diplomatic table to bring our difference too, there will be no table at all.
