One Response to “How Long to the Meltdown?”

  • Tom:

    I think there is another question that more appropriately pertains to The United States and the decrepit state of our governments’ financial affairs: How many years ago did the United States governments collectively pass the point of no return so that there was no longer a snowball’s chance in the Okefenokee that our public debts would ever be paid?

    I think we reached that point in about 1985 give or take a couple of years.
