In reality Western Europe has gotten as far away from the USD and USA as possible. This is it's problem now. Smaller nations (economically) such as Ukraine can be linked to the USA crisis since that is Ukraine's "back-up" currency. And these "bad investments" with the USA is a complete pile of nonsense. Nobody calls investments bad until they get sour. Then when they do, you blame the manager/country/w/e.

I doubt it. I think in reality more people support the law then the numbers claim. The law is common sense and liberals just found something to play with before the election. Wouldn't be surprised if this is linked to the Tea Party someway in the coming weeks. Speaking of which, I think that will take a bite out of the Republican vote. Too many people may vote for idiot independent candidates.

As before, I turn to Ray Stevens for insight on whats going on.
