According to the the U.S. census US capital investment in foreign countries has gone from $1.3 trillion in 2000 to $3.2 trillion in 2008 while at the same time the Bush tax cuts which overwhelmingly went to the wealthy cost 1.3 trillion per politifact.

Brother Clark,
What a huge eye opener this blog is for me. How do you know all this stuff? Ha! It's just sad that the American people have to suffer because of greedy people. Perhaps this is the way to the One World Order? How I miss Brother Earl. He's the expert on that subject. Anyway what can we do except go into business for ourselves to see if we can create some wealth for our children's children?

What can we do it we can't trust our policy makers to do the right things for us? It appears they all they are concerned about is cutting deals with one another that benefit them and only them. Perhaps we better look to another country to move to and if that be the case, how pratical is that?
