I think it is starting to become more apparent to me why most North Americans would rather watch dancing with the stars than try to understand what is happening in the real world. It is very complicated and requires a lot of time reading and thinking. Since DD is about the only thing we as individuals can do to protect our savings I have not watched mainstream media or read a local rag for almost 6 months. Most of my time is spend scouring the web for articles that might ring true and help me understand what is going on. That was one heck of a read and will be read again.
