You can turn on all three of these at the same time and it becomes a kind of post-modern cultural artifact. It's one of the coolest effects that I've seen in a while.

The problem as a whole is debt. Personal debt, business debt and Government debt. Our monetary system creates money out of then air with interest attached to it. Where does the money to pay the interest come from? More debt. It is a self repeating cycling that does nothing but enslave people and that is where we will always see the gap between rich and poor. Many of the people in the NW Quadrant are living on the money and wealth that was created more than 50 years ago and have become detached from this concept but it is still a basic principle. Someone in their family sacrificed to win. The US has become so intitlement driven that we are literally shopping ourselves our way to the poor-house everytime we go a Walmart or we give a tax break to a chain of some kind. These create small jobs and big profits. Rudy Wright is correct when he said small business is going to pull us out of this but this will never happen until people vote with their pocket books. We have to put more emphasis on production and creativity and less on services. The generation behind the baby boomers is facing a standard of living signicantly less than their parents. This is a reality. The other thing we need to do is question if we need the City and County government as large as they are? I mean when I see some of the State Salaries I wonder what in the world are we thinking. Every company in the country has issued pay cuts buts but I would be willing to say that there have been no pay cuts for these State Employees. The bottom line is that when wages come down, the jobs will come back. Wages are increasing in Asia and India, and some jobs are coming back, but our government size is way too large and I am a democrat.
