The True State of the Economy

What really is going on in our economy?  It is hard to get a clear picture since we here one thing from the White House, that the worst is over and that we are on our way to recovery (even though none of us buy that). The media who appear to be partial to the President also report that things are looking up and even in some instances excuse the President by re-iterating the point that this is going to take a while to fix since the last administration made such a mess (again, none of us buy that excuse).
To get a clear picture I think we need to look around the word and back through history and compare our situation to other countries who have gone through similar problems.  This brings me to an article that I read on the American Thinker website.  The article compares the collapse of Argentina to what is happening now in our country and it is really interesting to me since I was in Argentina at the time of the collapse.  Read the article here. It is chilling to get a little more perspective on what is going on and see how perilous it could be for our country.  It looks like it is time for all of us to get involved and demand integrity and real change that is actually good for the country from our politicians.
