I know. I’m getting frantic about this.

I already know that, since I’m in my 40’s, that I’m doomed. People who are older have other assets, and people who are younger can recover or work around the consequences of the current madness. But people between 40 and 50? We’re screwed. My main asset is plummeting in value, and the government is determined that it will not recover. My retirement account is augering in, leaving a smoking hole, assuming it’s not stolen by the Feds.

I don’t have time to recover.

All I can say is that its likely that much of Obama’s damage will be reversible, though it may take 1-2 decades to neutralize most of it

Also, FWIW, Obama’s is burning through his political capital nearly as fast as he’s spending your tax money. The way things are going he’s going to end up a lame duck fairly shortly.
