As far as the economy goes, I consider myself to be very lucky. I have a great job with growth potential in the financial services field. The Bank I work for got out of the toxic CDO market a few years before the market burst and has been solid the past few years. They did not take any TARP money and was not a part of any government bailout. And that is why their rating is now better than the United States :happysad:

I'm not sure I can recite it all, or that I should.

That said, I think:
a) Gandhi was right. Our modern-day Christians (at least the ones with political clout) are so very much unlike the Christ they claim to praise.
b) America simply could not lead the world in bio-tech and medical science without becoming more secular.
Long ago, we acknowledged our power and asserted our right to challenge the natural order of the world.
I'm glad we did, but as with everything, there are unintended consequences.

Ah, a lot of GOP bashing going on in here.
It's not like we just reached 100% of GDP as debt, and the major credit rating agencies were warning that we need to put it down to 75% by 2015 or they will cut our credit rating... and then we spent 7 trillion more in the next 10 years.
yeah, the GOP is totally saying cut spending just to be obstructionist. also, they are racist.

In 1937 FDR, seeing the US economy beginning to come back up from the Great Depression, proposed a massive cut in government spending, reasoning that most of the alphabet agencies he created to combat the Depression would no longer be needed. The GOP majority in both houses of Congress went along with it.
The result: the country slid back into a deep recession which it didn't snap out of until we entered WWII.
Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.
