it's almost cheaper now to buy a value meal, than to grocery shop.

it's better to buy a cheap ass car and maintain it, than to get a new one and a car note, especially a GM vehicle and keep afloat.

companies have balled out and enjoyed outsourcing production of goods and services only to turn around and resell them here to those that may have been employees in the past.

the military is operating in so many different places around the world, i personally am unsure that should another large force attack this nation, we'd be able to effectively combat it, short of using our plethora of nukes.

i know that when america beat russia in the cold war, russia quickly went to hell.
china is now a waking dragon( no thanks to the masses of companies that saved billions outsourcing to increase profits) and my feeling is that there can't be 2 world superpowers at a time, meaning one of them has to fall back. maybe i'm wrong, but i think with all that's happened in the last 20 years and with the USA knowing it has been "the shit" for recent decades, we might be in for a kick in the ass.

then again nothing could happen, and we will return to better times.....
good point i agree with you on this. i live where the army trains pilots and such. several different routes for various army/navy/etc training and shit. their has been alot more activity than ever before. and im sure alot of you know what i am talking about. it makes me think and wonder if the gov't does know something is about to happen and is preparing to take over. either way i wonder why so much more now than ever before? even on 9/11 there was never this much air traffic around here even in gainesville when i used to work at my old job we would feel the choppers and plaenes because they were so low. just seems to me like they are getting ready for something. i do believe that if the US is invloved in another world war, that it will be on our land and no where else....but thats just me like you say every one has their own veiws and opinions so we may never know til its to later and we are in concetration camps...
