USA And The Future Of The World

I’m not talking about the Christian Apocalypse. I<b>’m talking about a more down to earth sort of End. The End of America. The End of Prosperity. </b>The End of Normal Weather Patterns. The End of Real Jobs.

That sort of End.

I started this blog, because, after seven years of the George Bush administration and six of those years with me, personally, working in call centers because that was the only kind of work I was offered (I have a bachelor’s degree,  a master’s degree,  I have 25 years of professional experience and lots of published articles)–after all that<b>–After all that, I do kind of feel like, well, the End is near.
</b>
<b>At the very least, the end of America as I knew it has already arrived. </b>Whoever acquires the presidency in 2008, whether that person be Democrat, Republican, Independent, or Dictator, that person will have a real job on his or her hands. Our moral reputation has been destroyed in the eyes of the rest of the world. <b>Our economy is tanking and tanking fast. </b><b>We produce less and less while being urged to consume more and more. </b>We are in so much debt as a nation that it is to the point where, if the US were a person, the US would be paying one credit card with the tiny bit of credit left on another credit card. In other words, we are running out of fast, easy solutions and staring into the abyss.

<b>I’m afraid to look back for fear of turning into a pillar of salt.</b>

Being a self-destructive type, I’m going to do it anyway. I’m going to look back, and then if I’m still here, I’m going to say stuff I shouldn’t.

That’s why I created this blog.
