"the end" of...what? Please, make your statement, write your mind, tell us your inner thoughts, but don't leave us hanging?

PS: I know what you're getting around to, but there's a lot of "slow" folks round here, me included, sometimes.

You might know what I am referring to. I don't want to be direct because that was not the intent of this thread?

Are you certain it won't, and why?

That being written, then, your riddle has stopped me from posting further. You can't always get what you want. YMMV.

Times in history have show us it up to Americans to pull ourselves out of decisions some groups of people have brought upon us all.
Inflation, Debt, Illegal Immgrants, Rising gas prices, (rated the value of the dollar)
Socialism, Welfare, Nation Building.

Miss informed patriotism and liberalism has lead us to the blind, deaf and dumb American who supports BUSH and Clinton ideas.
Obama, Hillary are McCain just more verisons of the same.. Big Government.

Time to clean house and put in some small government people or America is Done.
Many see the writing on the wall others like to pretend it's not there.

Since the mortgage crisis involves like 1% of homes it just points out what we have gotten use to in ths country.As far as the oil crisis we have heard oil was a drying resource for how amny years? Then look at the panic of many on Y2K. The Ron Paul people like to spread doom for political reasons but there really are not many of them. With the popularity of conspircy theories I just think it has become a society problem were some get excited about preaching doom . It is not surprising in that both parties seem only to be able to make any gains by spreading the doom theory along with the if you elect me everyhting will go back to the good life.In the end 90% of americans just live their noraml lifes making adjuctments in their spending habits.Very few peole even go to site like this and there are zillions more being entertained by going to youtube to see the comedy videos.
