Former Senator: U.S. "Ten Months from Chaos"

so even the obedient types will be left begging? is war inevitable now?

now you know why he's a 'former' senator.

fucking idiots, i swear.

There won't be any money for war. Would be an opportune time for a creditor to seize assets, though.

..just a (scary) thought...

How so? Who's the idiot here?

My suggestion would be that he NOT take any charter airplane rides from this point on. Apparently it is very bad for ones health.

He's talking about civil war and he's right. You can't continue to pile up trillions in debt forever. Congress just voted to designate the USA as a battlefield. It's hard to believe that people still don't get it......

Some do get it. Some do and are worried greatly.

Plug for Glenn Beck here: he's been shouting this from the rooftops & he's still made fun of.

I agree.. America will be fucked by the the end of 2012..

hate long doom dates

Fek when i heard Simpson thoght was Bart

Bah. Chaos can be recoved from.. Did he say anything about Doom?

There won't be civil war as long as food stamps and unemployment are in place. People r too comfortable to revolt its probably the real reason for these programs.

We'll know if we have regime change starting around Memorial Day. If everything turns to shit then Gingrich will be president. Then the Maw of Hell will open wide and swallow you whole.

My guess is that TPTB will give Barry an few Indian rope burns and he does whatever he is told and get re-elected so he can hear and see more phony cheers.

That is how pathetic this has all become.

THAT (or the removal of that)is one of the scenerios possible if the money is no longer available to fund those programs. When the US has a failed bond auction, the accounts will suddenly go to zero, then emergency conditions exist and the Fed will buy the treasuries, fill the accounts, the rest of the world will be running to exit the dollar, and inflate away we go, and commerce will come to a screeching halt.

That is the chaos...

He helped bring this country to the point of destruction purposely. That is "how so"

simpson and anyone that believes he knows what he's talking about.

He's from Wyoming...easily within the Top Ten of least relevent places when determining the course of the U.S.A.

America is not overspending, its growing.

the only way he knows what he's talking about is if he a part of a conspiracy to make his 'guess' happen...left to itself, America can't be stopped and as it moves in the stratosphere, Republicans won't be in any position to claim to be the architects...that's the real reason for his pessimism; he knows the time of what he represents has passed and he's an endangered species.

Obsolescence must be a painful way to die.

7061911 needs some serious meds....

in 2007 i watched Biden suggest that Iraq should be allowed to split into three separate states; which also happened to be al qaeda's iraq policy at the time.

i'm quite certain that both Obama and Clinton showed support for this idea.

these dinosaurs are a part of a culture of failure and fear.

hopefully, they don't cause too many problems as the system recycles them.

a culture of drug pushing and abuse. quite predictable.

Hmmm...where do I start? OK, consider this. The US is a Republic; a collection of mostly autonomous States. The course of the U.S.A is driven by the states, or should be given the way in which it was originally organized. The Federal Government should have very little to do with your individual existance. SO, yes, Wyoming is relevent, believe it or not. Would you allow New York City and the greater Orange County, CA residents determine the government oversight and intrusion foisted upon someone in rural Kansas? That's why we are not a Democracy or the people in Kansas really would be irrelevant. Do you want that?

Second: Wow, how can you say the federal government it NOT overspending? If GDP grows at a WHOPPING 5%(that's considered a good number), wouldn't one suspect the spending would increase a similar ammount? But that's not the case, is it? OK, add inflation. 3%

Truth is we are spending at an INCREASING rate of 20%, roughly. That is an unsustainable disconnect.

Consider this, as well: In FY 2011, the interest on the debt was $454,000,000. That was paid at RECORD low interest rates. What is that number going to be in a few years when a few more trillion dollars are added AND interest rates get back to normal?

How can you reconsile these numbers? What do you see as the outcome and how do we get there?

BTW, in that article covering the speach to Trinity University, was give by Simpson AND Erskine Bowles...know who that is? It says in the article. NOT a Republican. Not at all.

What say you?

Keep up that attitude. IF Civil War ever visits this Republic again I am sure you will get real lesson about relevence city boy.

From DEMOCRAT Erskine Bowles, exerpt from the article:

“I think you’ll see the markets first begin to raise our cost of credit, because they will see more risk,’ and then if we don’t do anything about it, and continue the ostrich approach, with our heads in the sand, what they will do is cut the credit off,” warned Bowles, who was chief of staff for President Bill Clinton and a long time Democratic party activist. “You cut credit to this country, and, you talk about a recession, this will be a recession like you’ve never seen before.”

Good to see this is a non-partisan issue. It shouldn't be.

On MSNBC today they said 1 out of 2 people in this country are living in poverty. When we all are living in poverty, then they will get it.

Simpson,former senator from Wyoming, for one. He's the guy who said when he wasn't running again that he was glad because he wouldn't have to listen to those stupid Wyoming cowboys anymore. (paraphrased from memory but worse than what I write) The elitist swine lives back east somewhere where his real constituency is.

He also did the simpson-mazzoli act. You know,the bill that would forever end the illegal immigration problem.
According to his bragging.

Simpson was a big part of what is wrong with this country for many years.

Sounds to me that your small mind forgot to tell you that you are a bigot!!!!

Wow, ten months!

He thinks that we will last that long?

He's probably a little close in the estimate, really.

Never underestimate the Fed and their ability to kick can down the road. Also, the EU issue will likely need to run most of it's course first, before really big troubles come stateside.

So, you have more time to be sure you are ready for any eventuality! As the saying goes...prepare for the worst, hope for the best.

What a fucking pathetic joke you are to think you know something concerning the causes of an American civil war.

one immigrant after the other that think they know something about America.

which page is the smiliy face that shits all over posts?



couldn't find it just pretend the thingy above is shitting on your understanding of America.

its on now.

when Obama signs that indefinite detention bill.

Americans are about to rip your fucking souls apart.

I hope the shit does hit the fan and the people physically remove the establishment where ever they maybe.

Be it Washington,wallst, banks, where ever.

Take control and split up the assets of these united states amongst americans eqhally
