Interesting. Is a thread battle won based on the loudest rantings or reasonable debate? And what constitutes a thread becoming epic here? Number of pages? Or is it based on the participants with the best avatars? So much for me to learn.

Little more to Vietnam than Kent State.
Show me a quarter million people marching on DC (yeah, that's almost half the number of fake e-signatures). Show me schools shutting down because no students are showing up to class. Show me protests in every major city across the country. Show me construction workers chasing teenagers through the streets of NYC and beating them with hard hats. Show me a generational division between young people and their parents that approaches the one of that era. Show me the draft being reinstated. Read Gallup poll numbers re: American involvement in Vietnam from 1965-1971 and chart the progression of public opinion. Politcal tension near what we had in America at that time? Lawl. Show me the president of the United States resigning live on TV.
Oh, so like 1929? Which is also between 1850 and 2012, btw.

It's coming Ridge, and it will be worse than the 60s, '29 and the 1860s combined.
My statement resides in the fact that the country ACTUALLY divided in 1861, so no the 60s were not more divided, neither was is during the DP. I fear we are headed towards another fracture, so yeah, more divided. You are entitled to your opinion, but so am I.
Opinion based on facts/statistics or gut feeling?
Everyone I see predicting a collapse benefits financially from spreading such talk; Rawles, Beck etc....
I've set reminders to mockingly bump this thread in 12 and 18 months.
Signature material at its best.
That, my friends, is the utmost measure of impactful demonstration. You made local talk radio in Louisiana folks. You're big time
Seriously, pundit radio listenership is a TINY fraction of the overall population.
I'll keep that in mind and make sure not to change mine.
Please dont change that avatar, I look forward to your posts so I can gander at it.
no one can predict the timeline, but it will happen. you can't rack up debt indefinitely without consequences.
does anyone here realistically think we can pay back 16 trillion dollars and counting? up 120 billion last month and projected to be well over 22 trillion by the end of O's 2nd term.
the only thing saving the dollar is that it's used worldwide to exchange crude oil.....our biggest export is inflation. just a couple months ago, a bloc of countries started circumventing the dollar by trading oil in the chinese renminbi/yuan. that is the beginning of the end. just wait until all those US dollars held by foreign governments/companies come back home because they have no use for them anymore. hello zimbabwe...
BTW, guess what other countries tried to circumvent the dollar on oil exchanges? saddam hussein's iraq tried to trade in euros and muhammar kadafi's libya tried to trade in gold. were they trying to bring down the american empire? whatever their purpose, it didn't go over too well. now that it's china, russia and iran in a coalition, what are we going to do? start with iran? maybe we can use our proxy, israel, to handle this "little" one....then what?
