catnip, no problem. If you move to Cali they will give you food stamps with cat food.

catnip read this about your beloved USA. News from today:
A growing number of families are relying on public and private assistance programs to make it through the month. Nationally, food stamp use is at record highs and climbing. The U.S. Department of Agriculture reports that one in eight Americans uses food stamps to help buy food, and there doesnt appear to be an end in sight to that ever-escalating number. In three years, the number of people using food stamps grew from 26 million to 42 million.

Hunger is a real problem right here in our local community. Children are going to bed without food, working adults are skipping meals to pay housing and energy costs, and seniors are choosing between food and medications. Hungry adults cannot perform well in the workforce. Hungry students cannot learn, compromising their futures.

42 million US citizen on food stamps. Awful news.

Yeah, End of Days is near I guess.

catnip, you still do not get :)
Merkel is playing her game. She does not care about PIGS and other animals. She is happy with the weak euro as this stimulates German exports. Period.

Dave, agree on the demographics issue. That is why the social security systems in these major developed economies are imploding. There is no easy solution if any at all. One possible is to allow immigrants but that of course is a double bladed sword. In any case tougher times are ahead for these countries.
