The United States is Failing and We've Done it to Ourselves

Via Don

"People are frustrated. They want us to act like a first world nation, not like what President Barack Obama is doing. He's acting like we're a banana republic. We've got to stop spending money we don't have ... What I'm doing is saying that the decisions that Barack Obama is making is acting like a banana republic."

"Have we lost faith in the free-market system of entrepreneurial capitalism? Are we no longer willing to place our trust in the creative chaos unleashed by millions of people pursuing their own best economic interests?"

As a nation, we are failing. We are failing ourselves; we are failing our children; and we are failing our grandchildren. We are failing our allies and our creditors, too. The evidence is all around us, and we could see it if we would simply open our eyes and look.
