I am an American and would not encourage either of you to think somehow the USA is going to escape the consequences of what @crypto.piotr is writing about here in his post.
The financial challenge we face is (IMHO) greater than understood by most Americans. And I further believe that it does not matter whether there is a Republican (today) or Democrat (tomorrow?) in power. Politically speaking, the honest solution to our financial woes is greater than anyone is prepared to even acknowledge, let alone address ...
As with much of the world, if “we the people” were told the truth of what it would take to get out of this mess, we (collectively) would say, ”What?! That can’t be the answer! I’m not doing that …”
@roleerob I believe you must have mistaken my post's meaning.
I don't believe Americans will get out of this crisis anytime soon. It's not some finger-snapping kind of problem. Plus, from what I've heard, a certain someone could be reelected. If that happens, before the economy is a problem, democracy in and per itself will be a bigger issue, I think.
Okay @djennyfloro, perhaps, but ...
... my primary point remains the same. It does not matter who is elected. The financial problem we face is greater than either party or any elected official ...
Thank you for your amazing comment @roleerob
