I agree, 110%, with the first statement. Where there's a bad product to sell, there's always a chump that's buying. As far as the greenback being as worthless as toilet paper, I'd like to squeeze several rolls of the Charmin.
I agreed with all of it except the part about Americans not having invented anything. Hmm... don't tell Robert Fulton, Alexander Graham Bell, Thos. Edison, Samuel Morse, Wright Bros, etc etc... but he wasn't really serious there, was he.

Partly yes and partly no, Von woke up with a spoon sticking out of his ass and thought he would stir things up today..............

It would be more accurate to say 'Americans don't invent anything, anymore'.

Since you can't stay focused on finance and have moved on to immigration , your link show me little more than a big list of third world countries who's lost soul are on the run, why would I weep. In twenty five years in Europe and twenty years in NZ / South east Asia I've known no one who has immigrated to the states, worked there yes (even my friend that runs a big chunk of JPL still holds his NZ passport. I guess what you are trying to say is America attracts the dregs of the 3rd world , and America's dregs are attracted to the third world ?
