America is the richest country in all of history. We have the largest economy and the largest number of millionaires and billionaires.

A supplemental "link"' at the linked page, on the CIA's Project Prophesy-where they warned the Federal Reserve, in 2006, about the impending financial collapse due to the derivatives market not being regulated........makes this article all the more compelling to be shared with my fellow citizens and Compatriots. Unfortunately, I can't get the facebook SHARE button to work (the "Like" button does, but the share doesn't seem to).
