Most Americans are way too busy living the good life to be bothered with “doom and gloom”. Well,get ready to say goodbye to normal. As history has shown us,no financial bubble lasts forever,and time is rapidly running out for us.

Say Goodbye To The Good Life

Christmas Tree 3 SC Say Goodbye To The Good Life
Will this be the last normal holiday season that Americans ever experience? To many Americans,such a notion would be absolutely inconceivable. After all,in the affluent areas of the country restaurants and malls are absolutely packed. Beautiful holiday decorations are seemingly everywhere this time of the year and children all over the United States are breathlessly awaiting the arrival of Santa Claus. Even though poverty is exploding to unprecedented levels,most families will still have mountains of presents under their Christmas trees. Of course a whole lot of those presents were purchased with credit cards,but people don’t like to talk about that. It kind of spoils the illusion. Sadly,the truth is that our entire economy is a giant illusion. The extreme prosperity that we have been enjoying has been fueled by debt,and any future prosperity that we will experience is completely dependent on our ability to go into even more debt. The total amount of debt in our economy is almost 10 times larger than it was just 30 years ago,but we don’t like to think about that too much. Most Americans are way too busy living the good life to be bothered with “doom and gloom”. Well,get ready to say goodbye to normal. As history has shown us,no financial bubble lasts forever,and time is rapidly running out for us.
