Any other countries diversify lately? And why aren't we yelling?
Yesterday, South Korea 'diversified' their portfolio. Rather, they got smart and dumped the dollar.

I recall when repukes bashed Clinton about the TRADE DEFICIT, which is at the heart of the sinking dollar issue. * has only compounded the problem.

Where the living hell are the people we elect, being just as loud in just due retaliation? Even Clinton, who's chummy with Poppy of all people? (never mind he was the best repuke president America ever had...)

Why is corporate america, the responsible party if we assume that 'government deregulation' is a good thing, continuing to worsen the problem?

My new computer desk was made in the USA. But how long will it be until O'Sullivan moves to another country in the name of penny pinching?

With Americans having no job, they cannot contribute to the economy. Many people have multiple jobs (* was openly proud of the woman, who had sat next to him and told him that she worked THREE JOBS), they cannot raise children. As a result, Jerry Springer, Dr Phil, Maury Povich, and other examples of human filth readily cash in on the failure of corporate america's responsibility to America and make despicable tabloid trash television that appeals to nobody I'd ever really want to meet. Then add in braindead daytime talk, product-whoring, "mental diarrhea" such as "The Regis and Kelly Show" and then ask if anybody under 30 can think for themselves and be able to not buy into corporate hype.

BTW: For 'penny pinching', read 'jugular pinching' and wince at the inevitable outcome. America's infrastructure is dying.

As for South Korea... good for them. What else can I say? In a world that humanity created, America cannot think it can be above the rules. Americans made this imbalance. Now they will also pay the bill when the dollar becomes worthless. Other countries are definitly seeing Reagan's revolutionized America for what it is and are silently looking elsewhere.

Also, Billy Graham recently wrote a book. Entitled "Peace With God", it tells us how to live in a world that is not what God had promised us. (keeping the closed captioning turned on, the following can be seen after the main question is asked: w? Obviously, someone somewhere is using the CC system to coyly insult * and rightly so. The commercial on the telly where you can get this book for free is a literal smack on the cheek, the location of is up to you. I am now convinced that religion, as a root concept, was made by the rich to keep the poor contented. In reality, LIFE IS WHAT WE MAKE OF IT. In America, I've seen people using 'faith' when voting for * as the world continues to plummet down the toilet, not even thinking to realize *'s role in making everything WORSE, neveermind corporate america's chicanery. Hell, watching in horror as America blindly looked up to * after 9/11 instead of realizing that * is at the helm who ought have been accountable (as the repukes would have if Clinton were in charge) was more than enough to make me feel at peace with God: The world is about to end, some of us can't do a thing and the majority won't bother because they have 'faith' that things will get better on their own.

Fin.
