National Debt: What does it really mean? In 1982 this writer wrote that

services returned to artificially inflate property values that enventuated
into the housing bubble. It would be nice if this were the only negative
consequence. But it is a pandora's box that is the second elephant in the
room after global dying .
The only solution is the
whole plan .

Timism offers zero-cost primaries for federal, state, and local offices--see
fossil democracy . Top
