Dennis sees the writing on the wall. Unlike most congressman he actually cares about “we the people” . So of course, he will seem insane compared to most because he is motivated differently than most of is counterparts.

December 24, 2010 at 11:57 AM #644646briansd1GuestSure, Dennis sees the writing on the wall; and he does care about the people.
But does he care about the people of the today or the people of the future? It makes a difference because the people of today need to cut back so that the people of the future may live better.
Any credit system is based on front loading the present and borrowing from the future. As long as that works, we will borrow more and more from the future until the system collapses. Who knows when that time will come?
Dennis wants us to live sustainably. Even if he’s successful in convincing Americans, it won’t last long. If Americans didn’t have access to easy credit, our standard of living (the products and services we can purchase) would quickly drop. Soon, other countries where credit is widely available (because not all countries would follow the Kucinich model) would surpass us and we would wonder what’s wrong with our political system.
My prediction is that when the current credit-based regime collapses, another one will takes its place. The power players will be different.
The mortgage business is a good illustration. If mortgage were extremely hard to get, people would live “in poverty”, more simply, in small houses. The economy would not be as strong because all the jobs to support housing would not exist.
Households would save to payoff their houses and future generations would not inherit debts. Over the long run (hundreds of years), that’s a better system.
But who is willing to make the sacrifices today for a future they will never live to see?

It’s the other way around. The banks nationalized the US people.
