    Do not conflate upsetting the apple cart with burning it all down, that is not what I was inferring, and you know that.

    The fact is they are all on the same team and you ain't on it. Both parties have done their best to sell us all out. Regardless if it is Chamber of Commerce republicans who sold-out middle-class manufacturing to the Chinese signing praises to the alter of free trade or Democrats who bow to the...

    I agree that 5% by any measure is not high. I am reminded about Hemingway's quote about bankruptcy " Gradually and then suddenly"
