The American “sheeple” are clueless. You can be born in America, grow up there, work there all your life, and not have any idea what is really going on.

My wife and I have been on food stamps for a year now, then my son was diagnosed autistic. I can not find a job to save our a$$. The job I have payes about twenty to twenty five thousand a year. I know some people have less than that. I constantly worry about money and not having a damn thing to leave my two sons, who will most likely have it worse than we do. I am surprised to hear that so many are on food stamps, although it makes me feel better. I wish things were different for now, but I fear that they are getting worse. I can not explain the intense anxiety and depression that comes with not being able to provide for your family adequately. I hate corporate America. These self serving greedy bastards would just let us all die if they had the chance, in the name of profit. What happened to helping our fellow country men? The other day I stopped to help a lady push her little vw passat out of an intersection just to be nice. Everyone else was just driving by, I couldnt help but wonder why she was just stuck with no help, and hundreds of people just driving past her. It feld so good to help her with no expectations of a profit for my services. It felt really good.

How dare you call Social Security a “government hand out”! After serving my country in Vietnam, I worked for 45 years paying into that fund and EARNED the benefits I am receiving (humble as they are).

I’d take a job tomorrow if I could find one.

Get your facts about Social Security straight.

And, BTW, I’ve never received food stamps and hope it doesn’t come to that.

a way out? Yes….Change…and for those who refuse to change it will mean PAIN.

we must
make our own things
grow our own things
live simpler

and then our culture will become more “self sustaining”….

…and the soccer mommy cries “owie!, owie!”

The US Government has destroyed so many people’s lives with make-believe criminal records that people can’t work or get hired in living-wage jobs; bring on the under-the-table jobs & welfare…

“40.2 million Americans received food stamps in March, which represented a 21 percent increase from a year earlier.” And 20,000 are being added daily. This in and economy that grew 5.6 and 2.7% in the last two quarters. What would a double-dip look like?

What he said^^^ (except for the ww3 part) There is a method to their madness. They need to destroy the reasons the American people fly the American flag and this is how their doing it. Immigration, American Idol, Money, jobs, religion, punitive police state, health care, environmental issues, puppet governments, terrorism, oil, etc.

The question posed was “is there a way out of this mess?” The answer is “yes” but the reality of what will happen makes it “no”. To understand where we are at you must look at the Bible. Do so even if you consider it to be a fairy tale because it is either God’s word or there are a lot of people with a commitment to make it come true and they are doing an amazingly good job. Either way, it IS impacting your life.

Understand that America was not destined to remain great. Our destiny was to become great and then to meld into the one world government. This was planned long before the Declaration of Independence. From what I have read I believe that this nation will maintain a semblance of prosperity and freedom up until WW III. That will not start until the ten supernations are formed and one of those will be the North American Union where we are merged with Canada and Mexico. Americans will be forced to accept this loss of our sovereignty and the replacement of our currency with the Amero because we will see that there is no other hope. That is the reason all of these crises have been intentionally dumped upon us – we would not accept the loss of our nation any other way.

So for a few more years we are going to have a roller coaster ride with a lot of downers and some false positives to keep the American people hoping that all will be well. There is nothing left to be hopeful about because our hole is beyond any hope of getting out and we no longer have an industrial base. The government will continue to print money and do other things that keep the façade going, then at the right time our brilliant leaders will reluctantly agree to what they schemed to create in the first place – a “rescue” of this nation by integrating us with Canada and Mexico and replacing our currency. Shortly thereafter we will see the beginning of WW III.
