America did itself and what's "disingenuous" is claiming otherwise.



I agree with you in only one sense. The public did this to themselves.
When they voted in free market fundamentalist republicans and gave
them complete control of the government, in effect they were voting
for that fundamentalist agenda. Now, not all Americans did that but
enough did so that the Bush regime had the seal of approval from the
majority. Did they really understand what they were getting? Of
course not.

The American working class has bought into the thinking that if they devalue
themselves enough, they will still have a job.
The result is less prosperity and a devalued brand.
This is what killed General Motors.
