The mistake is Americans thinking the problems can be fixed by any one man or in a few years.
America is in the same hole many are in, some deeper and some not so deep. Ultimately living and spending beyond our means.
How many of you have very low outgoings, $0 debt and more coming in than you're spending? Then look at the interest you're paying servicing the debt. Now imagine online porn was banned by Visa and MC from June 1st. Or they passed a lw making the payment of porn online illegal like they did with gambling.
Or your wife has a terrible accident and then you discover you have life threatening cancer and even though you both survive, one of you can't work again and the other has no appetite to continue in the higher paying profession of porn production without her husband.
All far fetched, but it can happen.
That brings the problem America and most of the West faces today, into perspective. Except it was "An accident waiting to happen." While the rich filled their pockets gambling with the rest of the populations wealth.
Living on debt is great.
Until "Shit Happens."
