Probably true of most of the first world countries.
Watch to the end.

What is most galling is we've actually done this to ourselves; by implementing unsustainable policies, short sighted, greed driven outsourcing & allowing capitalism to degenerate into casinoism.
Our financial institutions aren't investing any more; they're inventing complicated wagers rather than reaping the rewards from investing in enterprise.
Don't take it too hard though: 100 years ago, Great Britain ruled an empire far greater than any ever before, yet today we are a nation that is struggling to pay its own way despite still being the 7th largest economy.
The US economy is still first & more than double that of the next largest - China, though for how long depends on whether or not manufacturing of REAL goods continues to be exported to feed the greed of the money men.
There's a lot more wrong than the above but it's far too much to bring up here (& too damn' depressing too).

Took Obama 3 1/2 years to really mess things up, so I hope that President Romney can put us on the right path in a shorter time than it took Mr. liberal to screw us over.
By the way, Jeff Daniels is a bleeding heart liberal, but he did give a good speech.

Romney is part of the problem, rather than the solution.
He's a politician & as such will promote policies aimed at getting elected, rather than those needed to turn the US onto a different course.
What's needed is a radical conservative rather than a reasonable Republican.
Unfortunately, come November you might get neither.

You can always vote for the libertarian, Johnson. All we need is another 20% of the votes for the majority.

Johnson? Who's Johnson? Never even heard of him. That might be his problem and the 20%.
