There have been much worse economic collapses before this and there will be worse in the future. But our economic collapse is greater than Russian prosperity. The only thing different now is the socialist solutions Obama is looking to institute. He studied well in college of the Soviet model and is instinctively going there now. If he has any survival instinct at all (and he must, coming from the political world of Chicago) he will change when opposition gets ready to steamroller him.
If not, the backlash will be terrific. Americans are about independence and individual responsibility, not dependence on government.
