Yeah its not too looking too good for you/us/Europe is it? At least you can take comfort in that if the U.S goes down the road of bankrupsy, it wont be going it alone.

I actually watched Ron Pauls congress retirement speech in its entirety the otherday, I pretty much agree with his message, much of it is quite applicable to my own country too.
U.S congress is now bickering over the debt ceiling again, I have little doubt that will raise it again (What choice do they have?) but just doing this is hardly a long term solution is it?
If and when the worse happens the best I can hope for is that we can all get though it with minimal human suffering, that we all learn our bloody lessons from it and move on to something a bit more humble and sustainable.
