First you pay for the beers you already had - then you can get more beer if then you can pay for that, too. Just getting more beer for free, with plenty of unpayed beer on your bill already - that is a dream.

Metaphorically spoken.

In the past 500 years, several european nations went bancrupt and had to go back to the starting line and completely relaunch their financial systems, always at the cost of ruined people and at the cost of former creditors, of course. The reason was always the same: excessive, military spending and burning more money for a bigger military than one's economy could afford to maintain. Empires and dynasties fell for that reason.

But if you want to learn that lesson today, it seems you must not really step into a waiting line, that low interest seems to be. Well, you'll reap like you have sowed and when you have a weak stand while pumping your biceps and chest muscles, you nevertheless fall over easily.

Redefining more moderate priorities that can be supported - this is advise of the day, not only for the Us but the EU as well. Because he who defends all in the end can defend nothing and looses it all.
