Science fiction writer Ben Bova wrote:
The most prescient — and chilling — of all the science fiction stories ever written, though, is “The Marching Morons,” by Cyril M. Kornbluth, first published in 1951. It should be required reading in every school on Earth.

The point that Kornbluth makes is simple, and scary: dumbbells have more children than geniuses. In “The Marching Morons” he carries that idea to its extreme, but logical, conclusion.

Kornbluth tells of a future world that is overrun with dummies: men and women who don’t know anything beyond their own shallow personal interests. They don’t know how their society works, or who is running it. All they care about is their personal — and immediate — gratification.

A comedy with similar reference....Watch the trailer......click me

US Economy So Healthy One In Ten Mortgages Delinquent (New Record), One In Twenty In Foreclosure


That's one in ten that are spending the money that would normally go towards housing, is instead being spent at the mall, vacation, restaurants, new car..... etc.
Just think how much more mullah you would have to spend if ya didn't have to pay rent, mortgage, or property taxes.
Recovery my ass.

And our fuckin dumbass republican senators block amendment after amendment that would restrict the banksters from driving us deeper in the hole. 
Yet they criticize Germany for banning naked derivatives and other casino style banking that is destroying capitalism as we know it.
Unreal.
As I have said over and over Republicans and Democrats are one of the same. They no longer represent us, but rather they represent the special interest groups........ the financial thugs and the war lords.
