The fix is simple, just raise taxes! I pay enough in taxes, I pay for my fair share. I would rather end social security and have a private retirement account. Increasing my taxes, once again just shows what a scam it is.

    What sustained us? A common theory I’ve heard is WW2. Most the world had to rebuild from WW2 which gave us many years economic prosperity.

    I’m not sure if it’s true. I tend to disagree but I think it may be a valid explanation. We didn’t suffer the loses of Japan, Germany, Russia, etc.

    While we lost lives, our country was relatively untouched. Japan occupied parts of Alaska, attacked Oregon a few times but really we didn’t experience the infrastructure losses the other countries did.
