Poll - What's Next?

This could be a turning point in our history -or maybe not- what do you think?

Dems are in control of both houses so they can do what they want now - maybe come back with a bill with even more regulations and restrictions than the one that just failed. Soon they will have the presidency too... WOO HOO!

 

While I generally despise communism (have known some personally) like I said a while ago, the US may NEED to go more socialist if its not going to go down the tubes completely. We have to this point seen ourselves as a bunch of cowboys living in a cowboy utopia circa 1880 (of coarse not everyone). We gotta get our heads out of the past and out of our asses.

 

Right or wrong, nothing like a little depression to unite the masses.

It's interesting to note that the 'cowboy' period; the settling of the west, was one of the most socialist periods in our history. After all, most of the land was given away, and the mining, grazing, timber, and water rights practically given away as well.

 

My mother and father lived through the Depression. It was a time of malnutrition, disease, fear, and, occasionally, violence. There is little good to say about it.

My dad grew up in Seattle during the depression. Things he saw weren't over the top bad, but they were not good either.

The roaring twenties did not help at all.

I'm not sure we can talk about this stuff in the past tense anymore. Reaganville's are on the rise from coast to coast.

You forgot to add the long shot fringe scenairo. This is the formation of the North American Union incorporating Mexico, US, and Canada. It will have one currency called the Amero to compete with the Euro.
