The Cause of Our Economy

Well said, Neal. I think that these basic, core reasons for the cause of our economy are almost always overlooked. We forget that it is "we" that have made the choices we have made and with those choices comes consequences that we never thought about or have just put aside. Combine these actions with the millions of people that live here and this is where we end up. We, as a people, need to get back to these basics and make better decisions based on the understanding, from experience, that money does not last or provide security. Thus, our decisions about money should involve this thought process so that we can make wiser decisions that will keep us out of such econimical dangers. I, myself, included.
