I think this generation thinks this way because they have been more informed then the last few generations that are still riding the WWII wave.

Raising a country of people and telling them that all people all people are created equal except native Americans, African-Americans and women seemed to be left out of that idea. This tends to not make sense after awhile.

I also think that organized religion has a lot to do with the way we are too.

I like the idea, but we have a generation of people who essentially hate the country they grew up in. Most of the current generation of 18 to 40 year old’s could tell you the exact number of slaves owned by Thomas Jefferson but nothing about his writing career.

I’m looking to buy my first home in the next year or so, so that book looks like it’s going to be very helpful. Thanks!

Americans put idiots in office and got what we deserved! I’m packing my bags and moving to the Philippines for retirement. Let the Immigrants have what’s left. Americans with open arms and empty wallets. Thieves will be going back to where they came from since no one in America will have any money left.

I say screw the foreigner’s that bought our bonds. Declare America bankrupt and wash the bonds away. Buy the ETF TBT not bonds!

Buy Gov’t bonds and notes? Hah! Are you kidding? I’m going to buy what offers the best ROR and and protection against the hyperinflation we’re about to see. Unfortunately, that’s definitely not Gov’t backed securities.
