What did we all do to deserve this? Nothing.
Actually, it's those who keep voting for the idiots that have been elected to political office who are ultimately responsible for what lies ahead.
I am guilty too.
Until I figure out why my customers were allowed to go bankrupt, and I had to eat the loss, (I.e. the banks were offloading there moral hazard on me) I kept using Fiat, knowing it had problems. You can't blame the voters you need to blame the users too, most are still oblivious to the problem.
