The Big Picture: Our Curiously Failing Civilization

American Thinker
By Jack Curtis

Governments around the world are in various stages of financial failure, all seemingly trying to be Argentina. Curious, no? Look at debt and deficits; you see government spending issues; most of the few exceptions have other problems. Look then at global migration patterns showing people leaving poor places for places going broke, an unhappy trend line. Look anywhere; we can't seem to govern ourselves worldwide, while people protesting are multiplying everywhere.

The U.S. and the EU can't stop borrowing and spending, though no one can expect their stultified economies to bear the debt they've run up.
