A Look At: The Corruption of America

I ran into an article posted at the “Stansburry’s Investment Advisory” titled “The Corruption of America” I urge ALL of you to read this piece. It’s a long article and it will take a few minutes of your time to get through it. But PLEASE, Dear readers give it the time to read.

Here’s a few excerpts of the article that struck me:

Very first paragraph sets the tone:

The numbers tell us America is in decline… if not outright collapse.

I say “the numbers tell us” because I’ve become very sensitive to the impact this kind of statement has on people. When I warned about the impending bankruptcy of General Motors in 2006 and 2007, readers actually blamed me for the company’s problems – as if my warnings to the public were the real problem, rather than GM’s $400 billion in debt.

That’s always been the case, if you alert the masses to the impending doom its the first response of “You’re crazy” that shows up.

Further down in the article comes this part.

The corruption of Politics:

I’ll start with one of the biggest factors in the decline of our civilization – the link between welfare, education, crime, and politics.

It is routinely alleged in national political debates that something is fundamentally unfair and un-American about the huge “wealth gap” between the poorest Americans and the wealthiest. Some politicians like to argue that the poor never have a real shot at the American dream, and as a nation, we owe them more and more of our resources to correct this injustice. Most important, it is alleged that only the government has the resources to correct this inequality.

This is a dangerous notion…
