No argument here with what you say. There are so many places to lay the blame, and it easy to blame others rather then look at our selves. We Americans had it too easy for many years after WWII. We were THE Giant in the world. No one could beat our industries. We lived for today and had every thing we wanted ( on credit ). We need to get back to what made this country great. We are smart, hard working people. We need to get back to work and get rid of the I want it now, don't worry about tomorrow attitude. BIG gvernment, BIG buisness, BIG unions is not the answer. The hungry, creative, hard working American people is what we need. I will put my soap box away now and get back to buisness.
