Howdy Vorts, A must read comment. The clashes of present day conditions are cultural rather than national, political, or racial. In essence, they have their roots in " religions". As soon as the USA populace begin to drift away from a Christian cultural ethic base after WW2.. leadership pursued the changes and the financial markets followed. The world has now lost confidence in banks and insurance. When the Swiss bankers were sucked into the Madoff Ponzi scheme, the last vestige of trust was casted to the floor.
