This is the type of economy you'd expect in Latin America. There is no reason for it to happen here other than pure and simple corruption fueld by greed and a lust for power. We know the equation for economic woes: cut taxes, STOP government spending and deregulate. Ronald Reagan gave us the Clinton economy, as well as his late years and the Bush I boom. Same for JFK. For ANY US leader to tell us they have a solution other than this is to lie to our face.
