I DON'T WANT TO BE GREEK

More than 20% unemployment, people fighting over bags of free oranges, no heat, no medicine; Greece is having a modern day depression. Although Barron’s magazine put our becoming Greece more than 10 years away, is it really? It seems to me were only several years behind Greece, if that.

We have 100 million people dependent on our insolvent government, which only stays afloat because the Federal Reserve is loaning the criminals in Washington $1.1 trillion dollars every year. We’ve gone from the richest nation on earth to the greatest debtor nation ever. It’s not going to end well, and we don’t want to be Greece (it’s going to be worse). Forward!

Too late! We're already there. If you look at the real unemployment numbers, we're alot closer to 20% than we are 7.9 %.
No need to even mention debt!

Pretty much we are there except the bag of oranges thing. When they cut the food stamp benefits (which they will have to sooner or later because of the obscene debt) we will have that too.

We are far far worse off than Greece. Greece doesn't have a means to print more of its own money. We are headed to being Zimbabwe.
