I guess the BIGGEST idiots in this

[Stanley Steamer]

whole mess are the ones who just keep on "lending" the US of A more $$$$....... .....they should feel like the family member who keeps sliding their drunk uncle some $$ knowing they'll never really get it back.....but it's what's expected to keep from looking like a heartless bastard......

I think the folks who keep us in free flowing dollars are second in line to the idiocy.

We voters who keep sending back the same idiots to congress are just as much to blame as the
asshats we send back.  When Lindsey Lohan has a higher approval rating than congress, we have a problem.  The way to fight that problem is to vote them out and start over again.

New tagline:  Fight organized crime--fire the whole congress

When your enemy has more money than you do, you've got to realize they DON'T have your best interest in mind as they put you deeper in debt.

By the way China is not doing us any favors by buying our debt.

it might as well all be Monopoly $$.......and I agree......kinda like my Wife's Grandma giving my BIL $$ each week when he does absolutely NOTHING for it....he said he "deserves" to get HIS inheritance and enjoy it while he's young enough to enjoy it......pisses me off to no end......she hasn't done him any favors in the end.....when she's gone, the "Party" is over!!!!......

Study what happened in Greece and you will get a picture of what will happen in the US.

I'm with yah on that one.  One family member, my aunt, inherited over 80% of their parents money vs. the rest 10 other kids got nearly zilch split amongst the rest.  She blew all the money over 100K or so on foolish items and had to file bankruptcy within a few years is all.   Same with 2 people at work inheritance money all gone in a matter of only a few years instead of living within their means and now near bankrupt.  

Don't feel sorry for those type of people one bit. I'm still a tad ticked off my brother went to my mom a few years back for a 'loan' of 2 grand for a downpayment on a used truck his kid wanted age 18 or so at the time and didn't have the money.  He promised my mom he would pay it back but 4 years later no return of that loan to my mom and now the kid can afford 2 grand easily if he didn't as well blow money away foolishly.  My brother doesn't know I know but found out when I balance my moms checkbook and saw a 2K payment to my brother's kid.  

Back on topic sort of,  what really pisses me off is the chinese imports that we Americans are buying up in bulk not the others lending money to U.S.    My workplace is now about 75% non food merchandise with about 96% of all non food product imported from China for pennies on the dollar, well almost.  Items we get for a few bucks sell for 30 or more and yet most products are what I call poor quality not worth a dime.  But, U.S. citizens are gobbling up that type of merchandise by the 1,000's.

IF the austerity buggers get their way.  The time to cut spending is not in a recession but in the good times.  Cutting spending in a recession, as Greece and Spain amply prove, only make the problem worse.

Problem is, the tea party troglodytes don't seem to get this.

China holds $1.2 TRILLION in Treasury bonds and made $54 Billion in investments last year in the U S of A. Just read that on my Bing home page as China is warning the U S of A to NOT default on it's loans.  And you still wonder WHY they want us disarmed?? RIDE SAFE.
