We are on the verge of collapse. People are way too ignorant and arrogant to believe that we could end up being the third world. Just remember that 30 years ago, Afghanistan was a very rich middle class country. (Also a major backpacker's destination) 50 years ago Argentina was the richest country in the world.
At the current rate of spending, I give the US 10-15 years before declaring bankruptcy and defaulting on their debt (like Argentina did in 2001). If that happens the whole world's economy is in trouble.
If we keep electing careless governments that kowtow to public opinion instead of doing what's right, then we are in big trouble. I hate to say it bu guys like MIke Harris and Ralph Klein have it right when it comes to public policy. Suffer a bit now, reduce the deficit and debt and save the future for tomorrow.

Mr. Vivid, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. |
Actually he makes a very valid point and aside from the grammar it is probably one of the most insightful things i've ever read on here.

Yeah, our social structure will just collapse, and we will begin to live in a world like Mad Max. Come Armageddon! I know what hes trying to say, but following the argumental path of a slippery slope is fallacious. We are not reverting back to the middle ages of economy.
Lastly, I was joking with a Billy Madison quote, me and him have had this discussion or something similar before. |
Don't be so sure. The signs are all there for an economic collapse in the next 10-20 years if we dont smarten up.

Sorry, but I don't buy it. An article linking to CNN photos as proof? There is no way a 757 flew into the Pentagon. |
Ok, then explain what happened to that 757 that just so happened to disappear? Where did the people go? Are they all living in Area51 or something? Aliens?
As much as I usually consider conspiracy theories about crap, this one is just CRAP.
