American Heads Towards Bankruptcy

The New York Times reports:
The Democratic Party, as it revealed of itself over the past year, does not seem to be up to that coming challenge (neither is the Republican Party).

You admire the act of generosity, but you wish they had sold a few of the Mercedes to pay for it.
