Funny thing, it does not seem to be sinking at all were I live. What happened to the American Can Do attitude, seems most righties do not have one any longer, if so please get out of the way, others are trying keep moving forward, and we will.

Not only do the "righties" not have a can do attitude they actively want US to fail so they can return to the wonder years of the 1890's or antebellum south. That was when being really rich meant something and blacks, china men and jews knew their place.
Good grief people. The world is not ending and there isn't gonna be any major economic collapse. It's a downgrade in the government's ability to BORROW MONEY. The government is still taking in a few TRILLION dollars in tax revenue every year. Relax. It just means Congress can't keep blowing money it doesn't have.

Casper..look outside of your little bubble. It's not just the US that have financial problems. This is global. Pockets may not see it but it's just a matter of time.
Yes, it is interesting that republicans admired Reagan's optimism and fundamental belief in America. I did too. Carter's biggest failure, in my opinion, was that he had no ability to inspire. He was a smart guy, but did not speak to our hearts.
These days, it seems that most conservative posts are doom and gloom paranoia, chortling at some failure they can pin on the other side, talking smack, or whining about taxes. None of those instincts made America or American business great.

And posts from the far left are what?
I'm waiting for the final plunge and ready on the sidelines to buy.
