Most Americans approve of borrowing even more money to pay for things they cannot afford. America is having a party, and YOU, the rest of the world, get to pay. |

Odd that government run health care works better and costs less than the mess of a system we have today. Seems like a plan to me. |

I love when people quote statistics and they have no clue what those statistics mean. Read the entire report, including the questions asked, and you will understand why the percentage is so high. |

Except that I'm not wrong. US has the most expensive health care in the world. US does not even have close to the best health care in the world. But let me guess, you have faith and confidence that your free market economics can't be letting you down. Bad news. They are.

Most people in other nations are shocked at how the United States presents Health Care as a privilege while instituting socialist interventions into investment banks. Bizarre country the US is.

Most people are OUTRAGED the banks would allow so many crappy loans to be handed out to UNDESERVING people. (and who is hit the hardest here..... only the most liberal of states. Again...) One lady is crying for help from the goverment because the $55,000 dollars a year isn't going to cut it for her $500,000 home. Rinse, repeat send the banks to the cleaners and let the majority of Americans pay for the minoritys of the peoples HORRIBLE spending/lending. The banks are at fault moreso for being greedy and allowing these morons the priviledge of a loan. But they are not alone. If you have ever had a repo of anything of value, please, please, DONT point a finger. Unless you point it at yourself, and apologize to the rest of us even.

Ill agree it is a serious problem. How the US solves it I have no clue...but providing quality education and health care to everyone who lives there is a start...instead of attempting to bail out poorly run investment banks.
