This stuff is way over my pay grade (stole that from Obama) but I think we're on the fast-track toward socialism or some other type of system. A form of universal health care is inevitable in the near future. Corporate greed makes a mockery out of the free market system. Sin and selfishness taints everything, from welfare to Wall Street. It seems to me that our country is quite bipolar. On one hand we're an Oligarchy (rule by the few rich) yet the masses must be appeased by the promise of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. The next generation must have it better than the previous generation. The "poor" must have a living wage (rich by the standards of many developing countries), regardless of the choices they make and the effort they put forth. So politicians must tell the masses what they want to hear and give them their entitlements (aka, the bread and circuses of Rome.) The USA is still a great county, but I don't know where we'll be in 20 years. I do know that God will continue to reign while kingdoms rise and fall.
