    Downhill spiral. But people said that in the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's too. Question is: when? History has taught us that entitlements (or feelings of) are one of the significant factors of the downfall of any civilization. Greeks, Romans, Spanish, French... We are likely next. We can do our best to make the changes but in the end we have to be prepared for the worst.

    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.
