Why the Economy is in the Toilet...

To the person viewing this blog...
Our economy is in bad shape. That's no secret. And believe it or not, the reason is perfectly clear--don't listen to all the people who say that the economy situation is a mystery. The reason is obvious. The main people in charge in the control center for the United States are stupid. We are in a recession because of them. It was bound to happen, we all had to have seen it. Once the businesses and government in this country started focusing less on where to get oil and more on making phones that do just about everything but call people, we were (for the lack of a better term) screwed. The most recent example I have noticed is about the prisoner situation from Guantanamo Bay prison. They need to move these prisoners, right? So the U.S. says, "Sure! We'll take 'em!" And instead of putting them in the already payed for Federal Prisons, what do they do? The spend 200 million dollars to move the to an island. Federal Prisons are already payed for and that's their purpose...to hold prisoners. Yet we question why the economy is in the toilet as we dish out hundreds of millions of dollars to solve other countries problems rather than fixing our own first... This is where we're sending our future? Into a world full of destruction and unpaid debts? That doesn't seem fair if you ask me...
