3. Like all addicts....
.... the country has to hit rock bottom before progress can be made.

It won't take long, perhaps another 2-5 years, but the economy as currently managed in the US is unsustainable. When the inevitable pain comes, then everyone will wake up and ask themselves "self, how did I get here?".

Of course, there will still be some who will try to blame Clinton, but I don't think that will be a popular idea. People are already distrustful of corporate management, regulatory agencies, the Wall Street crowd. It's not going to take much to make America turn on all this corruption in a big way.

Ok, just my opinion.
