Moody's threatening to downgrade U.S. debt...
It's the "shock doctrine" boys and girls. Wall Street and the Republicans (and maybe some Democrats as well) are getting ready to convice the public that their is a crisis that requires "austerity." That means cutting back SS and Medicare and other public programs. Of course they will refuse steadfastly to see the real problems of inadequate taxation and a swollen military budget.

But, the implementation of their agenda is going into full swing I suspect.

1. The wars are eating us alive. Our addiction to military adventurism has come to fruition.
And either we get pruned off the money vine or it does.
