As far a Lehman Brothers, and the financial collapse...that was a collective fucking by the 1% of ALL countries, not just the U.S. It was an international coalition of rich assholes butt fucking the cash cow until it died. They got stinking rich while the other 99% got stuck with the bill.

Wrong. The War in Iraq would not have happened without Bush pushing for it. The cause of the sub-prime market was Clinton and the US Government letting Wall street run wild.
Yes, we get stuck with the bills.
You're right about the 1% though and they all jumped in.
Will Americans start voting for candidates who don't have a finger in the corporate pie? It will need more than a President to turn it around.
As for Europe, we need to throw off the stranglehold of the EU.
