Tags: A Crisis of Democracy
Last week political commentator, and one-time Presidential candidate, Pat Buchanan wrote a column entitled, "Is This How Democracy Ends?"
Buchanan remarked, "I used to think it would take a great financial crisis to get both parties to the table, but we just had one," said G. William Hoagland, a former adviser to the Senate Republican leadership on fiscal policy.
Buchanan agues that America faces "A Crisis of Democracy" because of party gridlock and an inability to resolve the soaring national debt.
Who Moved My Cheese?
White House Advisor, Larry Summers, recently said that the American economy is experiencing "a statistical recovery and human recession".

Nearly 15 million Americans are out of work.
Earlier today, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down in part to a report showing that 500,0000 of us filed first time unemployment benefits last month.
